The Dream Collective

What The Dream Collective does

The Dream Collective, operating as TDC Global, is a privately-held Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) consultancy founded in 2012 and headquartered in Sydney, Australia. The firm serves enterprise organisations across the Asia-Pacific region, with a stated client base of more than 120 Fortune 500 companies including Adobe, Amazon Web Services, Boston Consulting Group, Google, Unilever, LVMH, PayPal, adidas, LEGO, HOYTS, and New Relic. Its service portfolio spans Consulting and Leadership Advisory (including a 100 Days to 50/50 gender equity program), Talent Attraction and Employer Branding, Women's Leadership Acceleration, Inclusive Leadership, Allyship Training, Emerging Women Leaders, Employee Sponsorship, Return-to-Work, Inclusive Hiring Audits, Future Leaders, and the SheDares program aimed at women in technology, complemented by proprietary APAC-focused research publications.

TDC Global operates as a human-led professional services business rather than a software or platform company; the source material discloses no proprietary technology, API, or AI capabilities, and delivery occurs through consultants, facilitators, and program leaders. The firm maintains six office locations across Sydney, Melbourne, Singapore, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Seoul, enabling in-region facilitation across the APAC corridor, with programs delivered both on-site and virtually to enterprise clients. Marketing and demand generation are executed through a multi-channel mix including content marketing via blog and research, organic social (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram), email newsletters, earned media in major Australian outlets, and case studies from named enterprise clients.

The commercial model is enterprise project-based and retainer consulting, with quote-based engagements and no publicly disclosed pricing. The firm has been recognised as APAC's Top DEI Consultancy in 2026 and was founded by an unlisted ownership structure with no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or institutional investment identified. Revenue is not disclosed, and headcount is stated as 11-50 employees, indicating a boutique-scale professional services operation.
