They deliver across a variety of sectors, all of which are being transformed by digital and technology.


Gosh Creative

Gosh Creative is a Melbourne-based design group, with a combined 32 years’ experience in the advertising, design and creative industries.

We create design that communicates with clarity, forward thinking and style – while having fun along the way. Our clients rave about us and we consider our relationship with them our no.1 priority. We’ve never missed a deadline and we’ve never disappointed. We take our clients seriously and like to think we’ve created some good partnerships along the way. We listen, think, imagine and create.

While we consider ourselves a bit of a dynamic duo, we’re not a one-size-fits-all, given the task, we can plug in people as needed. It could be photography, web development, account management or copy writing. Our contacts span right across the industry. This keeps us nimble and the ideas fresh.

We specialise in:

  • Graphic design

  • Logo development and brand IDs

  • Advertising and marketing

  • Brochures and stationery

  • Web design, social media and online strategy


Sketch Group

Sketch Group is an award-winning visual consultancy based in Melbourne, Australia. We use sketching to tell stories, solve problems, explain ideas, and capture conversations.

A passionate team of writers, videographers, illustrators, producers, and animators, we’re friendly, flexible, and great at what we do. We punch above our weight in the corporate arena, but also relish in working with organisations as small as us.

We believe everyone wants to be understood, and that visual literacy is the key to better communication. Our mission is to use our creative superpowers to bring important stories to life—on the screen, in the board room, and in the hearts and minds of our audience.


Staffbase

Staffbase is a global technology business specialising in providing industry leaders with their own branded application, empowering them to engage their diverse, disconnected, and distributed workforce through an innovative internal communication solution.

Company communicators want a single place where they can reach and engage all employees across every channel. Employees want a simple and user friendly way to connect with their company no matter if they are desk, frontline, remote or distributed workers. We connect companies with their employees through a branded app, desktop browser, email, or chat, with the goal of establishing community and shared purpose at work.
