OUR MISSION : Creating a world of ‘Human’ Brands A ‘Human’ brand as defined by an alignment of Core, Body Realm HOW IT ALL STARTED This needs a #throwback to the founding of our parent product development company, Techlyon. As people started approaching them for product and innovation consultations, we soon realised that brands didn’t just need help with technical development, but with client acquisition too. With a shared mission to set the human standard for marketing, our founders joined forces to start AKÏN - a company that enable businesses to grow through Technological, Brand and Inbound Interventions.

But how do we help organisations achieve real growth? We brought our skills of brand and technological innovations together with the philosophy of marketing. We build infrastructure and tools to facilitate interfacing brands and people, and rightfully so with the speed of today’s chatter in the digital world. We cut through the noise to build experiences that live between organisations and people - that’s the growth we’re looking for. Values we live and work by • LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN: We believe it’s always possible • BE LIKE A THREE-LEGGED TABLE: We take risks and we do new ideas • IT STARTS WITH THE HEART: If it matters to you, it matters to us. • ENABLING OTHERS: It’s all about the partnership and collaboration.
