Interview
STELP: When was your first point of contact with STELP?
Verena und Mirco: We got to know Serkan back in 2016, when STELP was still called Balkanroute. And at some point he approached us and said: “Hey, I need a new logo. Could you maybe do that?”. Our answer was clear: you don’t just need a new logo, we will develop a brand for you. That was the starting signal for our collaboration. And the start of a project close to our hearts. Today, in 2024, we are proud to say that we have been the lead agency at STELP’s side for years, shaping the brand and constantly developing the brand communication.
STELP: What was your most memorable STELP moment?
Verena und Mirco: There have been many in recent years: For example, the wonderful galas or concerts with a magical atmosphere in front of the sepulchral chapel, for example. But we particularly remember the many and mostly wild encounters with Serkan and his many ideas. Like in autumn 2020, when he came to our agency and said: “I want to open a non-profit café. Are you in?” Opening a café as a charity organisation. Pretty crazy. But above all admirable, determined and courageous. It is precisely this courage that characterises STELP. And it is rewarded.
STELP: What makes the STELP team stand out for you?
Verena und Mirco: First and foremost, courage. And the creative power to turn visions – no matter how big – into reality. The apparent ease with which this team achieves really great things is very admirable. For us, the STELP team and the community that has grown over the years also means family.
STELP: Where does the motivation to support STELP come from?
Verena und Mirco: We work for major brands and companies. Our work fulfils us. Especially when we can put it into a project that is close to our hearts. What we are good at, we use in the right place at STELP. We support the realisation of bold ideas – no matter how crazy they may sound at first. We will continue to get involved. Using our creativity and digital strength to make STELP’s work more visible and thus better known and more successful. We are very grateful to have been part of this growing community for so long and are delighted with every success of STELP. We are Von Helden und Gestalten. And you are our true heroes.
STELP: In brief – what does STELP stand for?
Verena und Mirco: Courage. Creativity. Impact. Love for humanity.
