About:

With over 25 years experience, TheSumOf uses branding to help business’ be better understood—internally and externally—by aligning Culture and Purpose with the business’ strategic intent.

TheSumOf works with collaborative, committed and courageous business leaders who are focused on pursuing meaningful projects, and who seek to challenge their category conventions.

TheSumOf is unusually selective about the business’ it works with. This is to ensure there is a good fit—that our values align and that mutual respect is upheld. The ultimate aim is to make a positive impact.

Acknowledgement:

TheSumOf acknowledges past, present and emerging Traditional Owners, particularly the Turrbal and Jagera people of present-day Brisbane.
