Agency clients

A Pan-European digital agency *, newly established in a key Asian market, needed a deeper understanding of how the groundbreaking work from across the region could inform design and client reach in Europe.

Trialing a new organisation, with updated roles and workflows across continents, helped the agency reach their growth goals ahead of schedule in late 2024.

My work as Partner and Global Strategic Design Director at Manyone, including work for the United Nations, spanning 2019-2024 is best explored from this starting point.

There you can also find the incredible people I worked with in building the agency from humble beginnings to 300+ team members in 14 offices across 10 countries.
