About Found.
Brand building is never finished. It’s constant adaptation, refinement and growth. It means being better than yesterday — finding the ideas that make you worth paying attention to, and turning them into something people recognise and remember.
That’s why we’re called Found.
Because it’s our job to help you find what sits at the heart of your business and tell the world.
Found is a brand and events strategy consultancy helping businesses uncover their best ideas and bring them to life through brand stories, communications and live experiences.
About Luke.
I’m a brand and event strategist working at the intersection of communications, storytelling and live experiences.
Over the decades I’ve worked with agencies, creative studios, not-for-profits and founders to uncover their core narratives and bring them to life through communications, campaigns and events.
My career has spanned creative and comms agencies, marketing leadership, brand strategy and the creation and curation of industry events spanning advertising, film and TV, climate tech and social action — across UK, Europe, APAC and the US.
Today, I run Found, helping events and organisations uncover their most powerful story and turn them into ideas people gather around.
It’s a pleasure to meet you! Drop me a message below and let’s chat brand building, storytelling, thought leadership, vintage furniture, schnauzers or ceramic sculpture (see pic!).
