Our story

2015

In spite of its size and location, St Andrews draws students from every corner of the globe.

We were fascinated by the diverse array of stories unfolding all around us and set out to build a network of photographers, filmmakers, designers, musicians, and artists united in their passion for storytelling.

At first, we worked with student societies – but soon attracted the attention of local and national clients.

2017

Two years later, we set our sights on London and established our very own production studio – Ampersand Media.

As the newcomer in an established field, we had no idea how much hunger we’d find for our fresh take on creative direction and content production.

Since then, we've worked with more than 50 brands.

2020

Success in the UK empowered us to explore new avenues to scale our ambitious vision for the future of work – a world of fluid organisations, dynamic freelancer collectives, and democratised creativity.

In 2020, we established Ampersand Strategy in Amsterdam with a focus on venture design and platform development. Today we work across London and Amsterdam, bringing the right people together for each project.
