Next5

Visualizing Complex Data-Driven Content

Highly regarded technology leader and innovator, Bryan Ware, founded Next5 to strategically advise leading companies to develop, acquire and protect game-changing technologies. With a focus on the intersection between emerging technologies and global competition, Next5 serves company executives, technology investors and policy makers as they plan for the next 5 years and beyond.

Intent

Prior to founding Next5, Bryan was the first Presidentially appointed Director of Cybersecurity at CISA. He realized the need for a strategic partner to help establish his company with a brand strategy and identity, a website, a visual design system and comprehensive offerings. Our strategists and designers worked closely with the Next5 team to create a cohesive visual language and design the company’s website, newsletter, infographics, event invitations and presentation materials.

Throughline created a design system in lieu of a traditional style guide and templated collateral to expedite the launch of the company and rollout of new offerings and programs.

The design system allows flexibility for the Next5 team to quickly put together materials as the company continues to grow.

IMPACT

The team at Next5 were able to take components of the design system and produce content and collateral to be distributed on social media and to key clients. Our solution empowered Next5 to create exactly what they needed while also ensuring it was on brand, making all materials produced polished and well-designed.
