The FUSE Initiative and Service Cluster Ireland

Having previously collaborated with Enterprise Ireland on IDEAGEN, Threesixty was delighted to be asked to follow on the success with the co-development, identity, branding and promotion of the FUSE Initiative which launched in January 2011.

The FUSE Initiative is a 2-year project by entrepreneurs in the South-East of Ireland which aims to ignite growth among regional businesses and attract high-growth businesses to the region.

Now one year on, FUSE has launched a number of projects that will help drive innovation and business partnership, one of which is Service Cluster Ireland. Service Cluster Ireland is aimed at helping Irish businesses improve commercial performance through service design. Threesixty also designed the brand identity and website for Service Cluster Ireland.

Today, FUSE has over 200 members. The success of FUSE is testament to the tenacity, drive and entrepreneurial spirit of the businesses involved.
Threesixty is proud to be a part of FUSE and looks forward to more exciting projects with the initiative during 2012.

Sarcopenia brochure for Carbery

Threesixty worked closely with the team at Carbery to design and copywrite this brochure which is an introduction to sarcopenia – the natural age-associated decline of muscle mass over time. It has been suggested that sarcopenia is as harmful as osteoporosis but less well known.

The consumption of high quality protein such as whey protein in association with exercise can play an active part in the prevention of sarcopenia. As the fastest growing age group in the world, seniors are an important emerging market sector for food and beverage manufacturers to develop nutritional products for an active and healthy lifestyle.

This brochure was produced for FiE (Food Ingredients Europe) which took place in November in Germany.

Well-known for its technical expertise and innovation in the sports nutrition industry, Carbery offers whey protein ingredients that can be used to enrich a variety of nutritional applications.

Threesixty wins two WOLDA 2010 awards

Threesixty is delighted to announce that it has won two prestigious international design awards for corporate branding work for two Irish companies. The two branding projects chosen by WOLDA were for Trilogy Technologies and Bespoke & Co. The WOLDAs recognise the very best of logo and trademark design from around the world and this year over 1,400 entries were received.

Bespoke & Co and Trilogy Technologies are high innovation companies operating in competitive B2B markets. They both worked with Threesixty to create a highly differentiated market position and market winning brand propositions.

Trilogy Technologies is a Dublin based technology company that delivers a powerful competitive edge to its customers through a range of managed services and ICT support solutions. The executive team were clear in their ambition for the brand; as a rapidly scaling business they wanted to position the company as the contender for market leadership with can-do people, bringing the freshest global thinking on how technology can drive business success and the most responsive service. The logo was designed as a vibrant expression of this unique ethos, using a crisp red and white colour palette that is confident and corporate with a dynamic edge. The I/O held within the logo subtlety grounds the identity in technology while the forward-slash branding device captures the future-focused and fast-paced culture of the company.

Bespoke & Co is newly founded, low-cost custom framing business for professional photographers that innovatively fuses the benefits of a traditional retail framing service (convenience, short turnaround times and design customisation) with the benefits of wholesale frame suppliers (lower prices and wider product choice). The logo and visual identity needed to reflect the dynamic online frame customisation service but still stay true to the craftsmanship and design quality of the products. Bridging the gap between heritage and contemporary design, the logo expresses the ethos of a brand that rises above passing fashion to focus on enduring design quality.

According to Threesixty Managing Director, Simon O’Dwyer, “We are absolutely thrilled for our clients to get this recognition; we thrive on working with people like Trilogy Technologies and Bespoke & Co who are absolutely passionate about scaling their businesses. When you bring together the ultimate triumvirate of innovation, brand and people, you have a real opportunity to make a big impact in fast growing international markets. The success of clients like Nualight, Glanbia, iQuate and Adesco is testament to that.”

Congrats to Nualight on the acquisition of Lumoluce
