Today PwC US announced the launch of Industry Edge—a bold new program designed to help deliver sharper insights, faster solutions and deeper collaboration across industries. Built on PwC’s deep sector expertise and cross-industry perspective, Industry Edge helps clients navigate change, anticipate impacts and unlock growth across five major industries: Consumer Markets, Financial Services, Health Industries, Industrial Products & Services, and Technology, Media & Telecommunications (TMT). To mark its debut, PwC is releasing five marquee perspectives that spotlight the forces reshaping each industry—illustrating the type of forward-looking insight at the core of the program. 

“Industry Edge is about helping our clients see around corners,” said Paul Griggs, Senior Partner, PwC US. “We are going deep in each industry and wide across them—so leaders don’t miss the ripple effects that can mean the difference between reacting to change and shaping it.” 

As disruption accelerates and sector lines blur, leaders face challenges that rarely stay contained within traditional boundaries. Industry Edge is PwC’s answer — uniting industry depth with cross-sector insight to help give leaders the clarity and confidence to act decisively in today’s converging economy.

“With Industry Edge, we’re not just helping leaders respond to change — we’re helping them set it in motion,” said Mike Thiessen, PwC’s Chief Clients & Markets Officer. “That’s what it takes to win when industries collide and the rules of competition are being rewritten.”

Industry Edge is built on PwC’s purpose-driven platform that combines: 

  • Connected insight – proprietary research, sector-specific outlooks, and real-time industry intelligence.

  • Collaborative expertise – multidisciplinary PwC teams working across industries to anticipate and architect client futures.

  • Proven impact – solutions that turn disruption into competitive advantage, grounded in data and technology.

The five marquee perspectives launching with Industry Edge include: 

  • Consumer Markets: “From shelves to systems: Why the future of consumer goods will be unrecognizable.” Nearly half of CPG executives believe their current business model won’t survive the next decade.
  • Financial Services: “What will be left of financial services tomorrow?” 73% of FS leaders say their revenue streams are not future-proof for the next 10 years.
  • Health Industries: “From breaking point to breakthrough: the $1 trillion opportunity to reinvent healthcare.” A systemic reset of the U.S. healthcare system could reallocate $1 trillion in spending by 2035, fueled by AI and consumer-centric care.
  • Industrial Products & Services: “The future of energy and manufacturing: Is America ready to lead the next industrial revolution?” Intelligent modular factories, energy resiliency and AI-powered workforces are driving the next industrial revolution, which could leave some companies irrelevant within a decade if they don't act.
  • TMT: “Tech players can break their growth ceilings with this investor playbook.” Adopting a private equity–style “dealmaker mindset” is key for leaders to drive bold AI-enabled growth.

Explore Industry Edge to access PwC’s latest insights—So you can think it first.
