Our Story

Founded in 2003, Abundant Sun Limited was born (during a sunny stroll in Spain) out of our desire to create a company that would be a source of creativity, community, productivity, enjoyment, health, wealth and wisdom for our clients and everyone that our business touches.

We believe that great places to work are places that value their human, environmental and financial resources and understand how they intertwine. With a focus on cultural transformation, we help our clients establish these connections and shine.
