our story
Culture of excellence to lead the digital wave
As technology emerges, digital marketing becomes key for business to suceed. We figured out that there was an opportunity to create an unconventional digital firm by combining the rigor, perfectionism and analytical point of view of investment banks with digital experts to create unique experiences and products.
The result: a perfectly aligned team capable of unlocking the full potential of your business using digital marketing, technology and analysis.
Why?
Inspire totally different solutions for common problems
We met with blue-chip companies to understand how they were digitalizating themselves, what digital needs they had and how was their relationship with tech companies, digital consultancies and agencies.
Their feedback really surprised us: none of them was 100% satisfied with their digitalisation process, nor their digital marketing tools. They all thought there was room for improvement.
They highlighted many problems which can be summarized in two: they weren't getting the results they wanted and their technologies did not fulfil their needs.
We saw an opportunity to create a totally different firm that could solve this problems.
