ABOUT maiwald & mates
//welcome to the home
//of visual storytelling
Born as an agency specialising in presentations, it is in our DNA to always have storytelling in mind and to convey complex ideas in an appealing and visually compelling way. Because this has become so valuable in this age of inattention, we now have a broad range of services that brings us a lot of work for incredibly nice and demanding clients, from medium-sized companies to global corporations.
Our goal is to harness the full power of visuals to make messages more eye-catching, understandable, powerful and emotional in today's flood of information. Our approach is always straightforward, direct, efficient and honest. The way we want to interact with our customers, society, the world and ourselves is characterised by maximum sustainability and friendliness.
We are not a normal agency – and that's a good thing. We are specialists. We want to master everything we do really, really well. Our working atmosphere is also different: no alpha animals, no controllers, no receptionists and no sales colleagues. We focus on personal responsibility, trust and a team with individual strengths and development potential. Open collaboration with our customers is particularly important to us. Ideally, they see us as part of their team.

Comprehensible, beautiful and surprising creativity is sometimes fun, often hard work and almost always subjective in its evaluation. But that's no reason for us to complicate things. Here, ideas abound and there is a great desire to search for the perfect design – but there is also always a kind of ‘slider’ that our customers can use to determine whether they need a quick, pragmatic solution instead. And no one here is too good for that.
Don't try to protect your ideas as if they are yours alone. Instead, play ping-pong with them.

A few things we have learned so far:
Don't try to protect your ideas as if they are yours alone. Instead, play ping-pong with them.
ALWAYS ACT
WITH POSITIVE INTENT...
Those who bury their heads in the sand today will be grinding their teeth tomorrow.
