Second Eight is an independent branding agency for health technology, digital health and medtech companies. We design the name, the identity and the product look, so patients, clinicians and investors trust the company from the first screen.
It is a small studio by design. Sam Hox, the founder, leads and designs every project, and we take two clients at a time.
