Frontify's brand visionaries

Last year, we launched Paradigms, Frontify’s brand experience summit, to help forge a stronger connection between some of the movers and shakers in modern branding, allowing visionary thinkers to clink glasses, exchange ideas, and find new ways to look at old challenges. This year, we want to continue to shine the spotlight on people we think change branding and design — and celebrate their work beyond Paradigms. Frontify’s Brand Visionaries 2023 include 90 people from the US, Europe, and the DACH region (German, Austria, and Switzerland, where Frontify was born 10 years ago). These visionaries inspire, challenge, and help bring about the future of branding. And you may meet some of them at this year’s Paradigms in Lisbon.
