Our People

Our Team: managing and administration staff that support business development, project delivery and coordination.

Our Clan: along with our team we add consultants and artists, chosen for their professional expertise and sharing a set of common values; their level of engagement in the projects can be varied (from occasional to continuous), but always connected within a PRIMED peer network.
