EPIGRAMA STUDIOS

What EPIGRAMA STUDIOS does

EPIGRAMA STUDIOS (legal name: EPIGRAMA UNIVERSAL) is a Bogotá-based storytelling consultancy and in-house creative studio founded in 2011, operating with a core team of seven and a secondary European presence in Spain. The studio delivers integrated creative services across branding and strategy, UI/UX and web design, editorial design (print and digital), animation and video, documentary production, photography and art direction, and strategic storytelling consulting. Its core differentiator is a human-centered methodology combining active listening, interdisciplinary collaboration, and explicit commitment to social and environmental consciousness, enabling work with culturally and politically sensitive subject matter across LATAM territories.

The studio serves a dual market: international organizations and NGOs (C40 Cities, World Bank/UApA, GIZ, ICLEI, PR3 Standards, RESOLVE, CFF, Ministry of Culture of Colombia) requiring complex policy and impact communication, and SMB/startup/individual clients (Xiclo, Aweh, OnTrack Global, Hasta El Cogote, Santiago Cruz, Dan Durango) requiring brand transformation, audiovisual content, and digital products. Revenue is generated through two models: monthly retainer plans (starting at USD 600/month) for ongoing creative partnerships and project-based engagements for specific deliverables such as branding, documentary miniseries, or website design.

The business is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or external investors. Its competitive positioning rests on reputational credentials from international institutional work, a curated local talent network enabling cost-effective territorial production, and a growing portfolio of flagship projects (including the awarded global reuse symbol for PR3/RESOLVE). Channels are primarily direct: Calendly-based consultation booking, WhatsApp contacts in two regions, and a content-marketing website with case-study portfolio.
