Founded in 2010, SYLVAIN (formerly known as Sylvain Labs) solves complex challenges related to innovation, brand strategy, and design for brands, including Apple, Chanel, Google, Netflix, Nike, Spotify, The New York Times, Diageo, BlackRock, Airbnb, and others. It’s headquartered in New York City with offices in Richmond, Los Angeles, and Amsterdam. The firm has a proven track record of helping companies evolve their businesses, products and brands to thrive in today’s increasingly challenging competitive climate.

We feel lucky to have partnered with Pharus over the past several years in preparing SYLVAIN for this moment. They’ve been thoughtful, conscientious partners that understand our business. They helped us get from zero to one hundred, arming us with the intelligence, expertise and relationships to make the most of our process. We are thrilled with the results and look forward to continuing our partnership.
