Studio Future

Studio Future works with organisations that protect our environment and improve peoples lives, to show that the right kind of stories can affect positive change, by crafting deeply moving films.

“One thing I find leaders can struggle with is communicating their Origin (where they’ve come from) stories in an impactful way, which is one of the quickest ways to build an emotional connection with whoever they’re speaking too.

What I can offer is a 1 hour discovery call with the founder or CEO of a member organisation to help craft that journey into something that can move their audience’s hearts and minds.”

Let’s face it, a difficult relationship, an ill at ease team, feelings of overwhelm in the face of a huge or confusing workload, these things can prevent your business from being their most efficient and productive.

The most valuable assets in a business are often not physical objects but ideas and knowledge – so-called “intellectual property”.  Having the right strategy in place to nurture and protect that intellectual property can mean the difference between success and failure, particularly for green technologies trying to find their foothold in established fields.  However, identifying what such a strategy might look like is a daunting task, especially for smaller companies just starting out.  Mewburn Ellis, a leading firm of IP-specialist advisors, want to play their part in helping green technologies flourish, and are offering a free 30 minute consultation to members to discuss their IP.

To book a free consultation please contact Paul Dunne at paul.dunne@mewburn.com
