Our story

Founded in 2009 by our director Ben Maunder, Driven has evolved from a small graphic design studio into a brand-focused creative agency.

Our growth has been fuelled not just by our passion for creativity but also by our ability to understand and solve complex business challenges, making us a trusted partner across diverse sectors.

From the beginning, we’ve stayed true to our founding principle: great work requires lateral thinking, dedication, and a strong sense of community.

As we move into our 15th year and continue to be recognised for our work, we are deeply grateful for our clients, partners, and team whose good company has made us a community.
