About Us
We are Berlin Bytes. We are young and creative, we value diversity and freedom of expression — you’ve probably heard it from every single Berlin based digital agency though. What makes us different is the way we collaborate with each other and our partners. Since we offer full-cycle digital services (from Consulting/Research, UX/UI Design, Web Development to Marketing and Product Ownership) to our clients, we approach each job as our own in-house project.
You can expect to deep dive into a great number of industries — our spectrum of clients ranges from upcoming Berlin Fashion Start-Ups to large Industrials. This allows us to provide you with a great diversity of projects that matches your skills and aspirations.
We've got two office spaces at the border of Prenzlauer Berg and Friedrichshain. Berliners know these two neighbourhoods as a young-professionals-turned-parents borough and an alternative-Boxy-Techno-scene place. And we are happy to say we are both. We are where family meets party, where free spirit meets structured approach, where experience meets curiosity. While we are working hard to achieve our goals, we still think that there is room for fun and a good laugh.
