What Big-Giant does

Big-Giant is a privately held, multi-disciplinary creative studio founded in 1999 and headquartered in Portland, Oregon (600 NW Naito Parkway Suite F). The firm organizes its offering around three integrated service pillars: Brand (brand strategy, branding and identity, content creation, integrated marketing, and product initiatives); Spaces (workplace environments, retail environments, retail display and fixturing, pop-up experiences, and hospitality spaces); and Events (media events, product launches, trade shows, internal corporate events, and sales meetings). It positions itself as a strategic, process-driven creative partner that delivers unified brand stories across identity, physical environments, and live activations.

The studio serves enterprise clients with a pronounced concentration in athletic footwear and apparel (Nike, Nike SB, Nike Running, Converse) and outdoor recreation (The North Face, Specialized Bicycle Components), alongside selected engagements in beverage (Starbucks), technology and enterprise (Cisco), and emerging consumer brands (KOKO, IDgo). Selected work includes globally distributed events such as the Nike Running media event at the World Track & Field Championships in Beijing, Nike Olympic Retail Summits, and Cisco's Activate executive event at Chase Center, indicating operational reach beyond the U.S. headquarters.

The business model is project-based professional services, sold through direct enterprise engagement and event-driven client acquisition, with bespoke / quote-based pricing and no publicly disclosed rate cards. The firm employs between 11 and 50 people, markets primarily through its website portfolio and an organic social presence on Instagram and LinkedIn, and operates with no disclosed proprietary technology platform, AI/ML capabilities, funding events, or ownership changes. New business is handled through a dedicated contact, Keenan Keeley ([email protected]).
