We're a VivaKi-incubated innovation firm that creates revenue-generating digital businesses for clients.

Finch15 identifies unique business opportunities based on market dynamics, consumer behavior and a client's brand equity. By helping clients concept, prototype and launch digital businesses, Finch15 gives mature companies a hands-on understanding of their digital revenue opportunities. We then apply an agile development approach, working with best-in-class partners to bring those digital products or services to life, and enter their respective markets.

We believe mature brands are uniquely equipped to create category-leading digital businesses by using brand assets to their commercial advantage.

As brands consider their innovation and product development budgets, a small percentage of that investment can yield exceptional return via intelligent use of these brand assets. Brand equity and other "soft" marketing assets can have tremendous commercial value in launching digital products or services. The resulting digital business not only generates revenue, but also strategically bolsters the brand in a substantive way.

Thus, Finch15 helps companies create and launch new products. We help clients mitigate the risk of this endeavor by ensuring the brand benefit of the new offering in and of itself justifies the small investment.

We bring together marketing, digital product development and investment banking expertise to ensure cross-functional innovation in any client category.

As part of VivaKi's effort to deliver products that keep clients connected to digitally empowered consumers, Finch15 has unique access to talent and resources across Publicis Groupe agencies and partners.

We work seamlessly with The Pool and Ventures, creating a shared approach to product development across industries that benefits all types of clients.
