At Accent, we combine strategic judgement with international depth.
Our work is not about being bold for its own sake, but about achieving distinction without compromising credibility.

Keeping it personal in the global arena
In an industry where personal touch often gets lost in global pursuits, we maintain a personal connection with our clients. Our small size allows us to intimately understand the unique aspects of your business, providing bespoke solutions.
Founded by Edwin Schmidheiny, who has spent more than 30 years at the forefront of the world’s leading brand agencies, we remain dedicated to the art of creating brands that endure.
