Helping MATE.bike level up their brand experience

Client: MATE.

Key Focus: Brand

Timespan: 2020-2021

While riding bikes might be a given for any Copenhagen-based individual, targeting a global urban audience requires a distinct and persuasive visual profile, storytelling, and a beautiful product line. With an updated brand book, two new brand films, and a new visual universe for the MATE X, MATE S and MATE SUV, the e-bike company has sharpened their profile and successfully launched a series of limited edition designs, global campaigns, and a loyalty universe.

Nasstar

Navigate complexity with confidence

Client: Nasstar

Partnership Lead: Dzenita Dzinda

Key Focus: Brand, Product

When Nasstar came to us, they’d been at the cutting edge of technology for 25 years, growing steadily through acquisitions. The outcome was an enterprise tech provider with unmatched expertise… and a fragmented brand identity. In a world where technology moves faster than ever, they spoke technical talk to a technical audience. But that audience was shifting, and they needed plain, human language. Their challenge wasn’t just to look modern – it was to sound approachable, cut through complexity, and prove that in a sea of similar services, their real difference was people and approach. We began with strategy and an insights sprint, interviewing stakeholders across the business to uncover who Nasstar really was beneath the jargon. The findings were clear: every competitor sells the same Microsoft, cloud, and networking solutions, but Nasstar’s real value lies in how they deliver them – curious, collaborative, ambitious, authentic, and above all, easy to understand. We built a positioning that celebrated people as much as technology, shifted their tone of voice from technical to plain-speaking, and set the stage for a brand that made enterprise technology not just clear, but enjoyable.
