Gothenburg Agency Creative Hub UP There everywhere

UP Gothenburg

Your local marketing agency in Gothenburg delivering global and fully integrated branding, marketing and digital services

UP THERE, EVERYWHERE

UP Gothenburg offers global experience on a local level

The UP Gothenburg team has a clear and simple approach to customer projects: it’s all about doing the right things at the right time. Working side by side with customers, we first understand the business and communication challenges, then build a strong, confident message before we deliver bold creative ideas and effective campaigns.

But don’t other agencies say the same? Yes. Because it’s easy to say, less easy to do.

As Gothenburg is home to much of Sweden’s export industry, we work with major Swedish international companies and brands. And UP Gothenburg members have decades of experience in international marketing, branding, design and communications within B2B and B2C. But we also welcome and deliver outstanding work for smaller clients looking to make an impact in Sweden or abroad.

So don’t hesitate to get in touch. Access a global network of talent and competence. Put UP Gothenburg to the test with a tough challenge. Let us support your ongoing communication needs more simply and effectively. Or just ask us for our advice or a second opinion. Whatever you need, the UP Gothenburg team is here for you.

Why UP Gothenburg?

Broad experience across the fence

UP Gothenburg members come from a background that straddles both the client and agency side of marketing. This means we have a really useful understanding of what it is like on both sides of the “fence.” It also positions us understand how to best match creativity with different client needs.

Global experience

The UP Gothenburg team have all worked with global clients – either international clients based outside of Sweden or with Swedish clients with 90% of their sales outside of the country. That means we understand the dynamics messaging that successfully crosses geographic and cultural borders.

Embracing brave ideas

Our members share a profound belief that only brave ideas – those that challenge the market –  will produce campaigns that fly. If you always stay within your comfort zone, nothing exciting will ever happen. It will just be a case of “more of the same,” but there will be nothing that takes you places.

People-to-people connections

Our team embraces using technology to streamline operations and hold remote meetings. But we also believe in human connection. Whether working remotely, or in person, you’ll have a dedicated team you know working on your projects. 

Making a difference

We work primarily and most eagerly with companies that have already decided to make a difference. That ambition feeds us. We like change and we are good at provoking consumer behavior – what we often call social nudging – to move the audience in a direction that the client wants them to move in.

At the heart of Gothenburg

The UP Gothenburg hub is located at Amœba Creative Spaces at Tredje Långgatan, a stone’s throw from Järntorget at the centre of Gothenburg. Amœba is a startup hotbed and a curated co-working and event space, focused on product innovation and business acceleration – and all aiming towards creating a positive impact on society.

Did you know?

In 2009, the city council launched a new logotype for Gothenburg. Since the name “Göteborg” contains the Swedish letter “ö”, they planned to make the name more international and “up to date” by turning the “ö” sideways.

As of 2015, the name is spelled “Go:teborg” on a large number of signs in the city.
