With most of the world’s leading design agencies already using Brandpad to hand over their brand projects to clients, this move is a natural step towards providing brands value in every step of its lifecycle.

Papirfly’s core business has always been to allow brands to manage, create and share assets with ease through scalable, modular solutions, creating a home for their client’s brands. The acquisition of Brandpad expands this scope, as the platform support the ones creating the brand before it even has a home; the designers and agencies.

 While Brandpad takes care of brands during the creation process, Papirfly supports them at the next step of their journey. The synergies between the two companies are undeniable, and I am truly excited for Brandpad to be part of the group. This it takes us one step further in our long-term promise of giving our customer endless possibilities within marketing and brand management solutions”
