Starting up the TechStars

We worked at great speed to make eleven large illustrations for financial technology start-up accelerator TechStars recently.

The event team needed to announce the new start-ups at a launch event and wanted to illustrate each on big boards placed around the venue. With little time available, we drew the artwork onsite the day before the event, talking with representatives from each new company to get a swift idea of what their project was about. The resulting Drawnalism features in their video round-up of the first week:

The start-ups themselves have been talking about our drawings as well:
