History
Pete Sayburn revealed the story of establishing StudioSpace in a recent interview with Dinis Guarda:
"We established Market Gravity, which was then taken over by Deloitte. But we realized that it can be incredibly valuable but also very difficult as a small, relatively independent agency to win business with the biggest brands in the world. We worked for many years to build relationships with these large brands and strengthen businesses.
But we also thought that if there was an opportunity and a way that these smaller businesses that are very creative and have wonderful cultures and they are specialists in their field, often at the forefront of the methods and technology could find a new way to access corporations, then that would be a value to both. because in large corporations even if you want to work with these agencies, it's difficult to overcome the procurement challenges and legal and financial hurdles.
So, we decided that we would identify a new venture that could overcome these and create a platform that would bring independent agencies on one side together with some of the biggest brands and biggest businesses in the world and give them an opportunity to find one another and start working together."
He also added:
“Giving those small players a bit of a level field and an ability to access new opportunities with some of the best brands in the world has been our mission in establishing StudioSpace.”
