HI THERE. WE’RE ALESSI.

We believe that your strategy is only as good as the relationships you build.

We serve as long-term communication and design partners for Ivy League and high-caliber universities, research centers, and non-profit institutions.

We turn knowledge into influence.

Informed by decades of research on how ideas spread, we specialize in translating complex work into clear, compelling communication that drives action. As knowledge brokers, we work closely with funders, researchers, and nonprofit leaders to craft strategies that are as thoughtful as they are effective—so your work isn’t just shared, it’s understood, trusted, and used.

  • We work with the organization’s leadership team to hone their external image and messaging. This can include visual identity (logo, color palette, guidelines) and external messaging (mission + vision statements, brand language). Contact us.

  • We craft strategic email and social media campaigns that connect with your audience and drive action. From content planning to creative execution, we help mission-driven organizations grow their reach and make an impact.

  • We transform reports, white papers, and other official pieces into polished and professional looking publications. Includes copyediting, layout, and proofreading. We also offer infographics, report graphics, presentation graphics, email, or social media. Contact us.

  • We work with a technical web developer to update visual design and optimize website content. Contact us.

  • We collaborate with clients to develop customized strategy, direction, and scope of work. This is typically for clients who have little or no internal support or capacity. Contact us.
