Personal branding agency launches in Manchester

A leading personal branding agency has announced their expansion into Manchester.

Kurogo specialises in building the brands of CEOs, founders, entrepreneurs, and creators, with clients across marketing, sport, and tech.

Founded in September 2020, the agency has grown to a strong 17-person team and is on track for seven figures in early 2023.

The company have recently hired several senior team members in Manchester as well as other Northern cities, and will base operations from Swan Street in the city centre.

Kurogo’s Chief Operating Officer, Lewis Baxter lives in Blackburn and is heading up the Manchester expansion, he said: “The North of England has so much to offer. It’s a region full of top talent and a hub for start-ups and scale-ups.

“Manchester has built a reputation for launching and empowering high-growth businesses and supporting start-ups,” says Lewis.

“The city has a track record of nurturing and attracting talented entrepreneurs and has built a community of active investors. For those who know Manchester, it’s an amazing place to work, network, socialise and do business.”

Founder and Chief Executive of Kurogo, Sam Winsbury said: “Our roots are widespread, but we’ve had a particular strong base in London over the past few years. It’s exciting now to be expanding our work in Manchester, which is almost becoming a bit of a second capital, well for us it is!

“We see exciting start-ups and talented entrepreneurs coming out of Manchester every day and it’s turning into a hub of entrepreneurship. We want to be the ones amplifying their voices and making them heard.”

The agency intends to use its presence in Manchester, to explore the talent pool and cease the opportunity to work with other exciting start-ups, “Several of our team members have links and live up North – Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds and Newcastle boast a real buzz and have limitless opportunities,” adds Lewis.

“We love working with ambitious CEOs, founders and entrepreneurs. Over the last year, we’ve built a strong reputation across various sectors – we’ve delivered for high-growth agencies, tech and innovation companies and start-ups. Businesses with a social impact focus appeals to us too; we’re a small team with a big heart and want to drive positive change in communities in the north and across the UK.”
