A branding agency for health technology companies.

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.

What a health brand has to do

Earn trust first.

People share health data only with a company they trust. Every choice, from the typeface to the tone of a button, has to feel careful and intentional.

Be clear to patients and clinicians.

A patient wants calm and simple. A clinician wants precise and fast. One identity has to serve both without talking down to either.

Carry into the product.

In health, the app is the brand. We design the identity and the interface together, so the product feels as considered as the logo.
