We help you realise your full potential and MAKE an impact where it matters most through careful facilitation, workshops, design sprints and long-term innovation projects..

We have been making things happen across the globe since 2015, when our founders Patti Hunt and Kristian Martin made it their mission to embed customer-focused practices in modern companies across Asia pacific, in a new, genuine and innovative way.

Equipped with drive, determination, and a brilliant set of skills, Patti and Kristian have built MAKE from the ground up after identifying a gap in Hong Kong and our region. Since then, MAKE has gone from strength to strength, building a multi-disciplinary team of expert MAKErs who work with clients to help bridge the gap between strategy, great design and innovative technology to create impactful products, services and experiences.

Today, the MAKE team are proudly pushing boundaries, fearlessly facing change  and building genuine connections with our clients to help you MAKE an impact.
