©Copyright 2012 B Lab. All rights reservedAbout PROVOC
PROVOC is an award-winning visual communications firm. We work with our clients to discover their brands; focus on their brand and campaign planning, strategic thinking, and concept development; and efficiently and effectively execute campaigns and projects.
We became a B Corp for two reasons. First, to be amongst and contribute to other like-minded businesses that share our values and have paved the way for businesses like ours to thrive. Second, to receive third party recognition for the way in which we do our work and the principles we follow, to keep us accountable on a daily basis, and to build our values into the legal structure of our company.
The Change We Seek®
PROVOC challenges you to compel your world with provocative and virtuous visual strategy. We believe that design influences everything, from the way one is compelled to act, to learn and to change, and we use design and technology to drive social change and innovation.
