Ember Life Sciences

LifeSciences / Cold Chain Technology 

The Brief:

Ember LifeSciences is revolutionizing the transportation of life-saving medicines around the world within the healthcare industry using its proprietary cold chain technology. At the heart of their innovation is the Ember Cube, the world’s first self-refrigerated, cloud-connected shipping box designed to reduce waste, save lives, and improve patient outcomes on a global scale. As Ember prepared for its Series A fundraising round, the team sought strategic support to refine their brand positioning, develop investor-facing sales and marketing collateral, and open doors to aligned capital partners. With bold ambitions and breakthrough technology, Ember sought to elevate their narrative and expand their investor network.
