Technology

Kove

We were proud to collaborate with Kove, the leading-edge, software-defined memory technology innovator, on a complete repositioning, rebranding and relaunch that helped create a world-class brand befitting its groundbreaking technology.

Challenge

In the crowded and noisy technology space, Kove was struggling with limited awareness as a relatively unknown player in a relatively unknown category. It was imperative that Kove’s reimagined brand caught the attention of its key target audiences with just the right positioning and messaging to break through the clutter — and the skepticism.

Opportunity

Kove set a new standard for memory performance in high-performance computing, and now Axial1 had the opportunity to help them build a high-performing brand to match.

Axial1 utilized its advanced analytics capabilities to quantify the value of the market, identify and target the highest-value customer segments, and optimize brand and messaging strategy for maximum resonance with each. These analyses then drove the development of Kove’s high-performing brand strategy, brand identity and expression system, website and customer portal design/implementation, launch campaign, media planning/buying, media management/optimization, sales-enablement materials, content marketing, social media, event marketing, product design and much more.
