Dante Media is a boutique impact communication consultancy. We work with EU institutions, NGOs, NPOs, foundations, and mission-driven organisations to sharpen their voice, strengthen their presence, and accelerate the change they are here to make.
Our three specialisms are:
1. Campaigns for Change: integrated campaigns that move audiences from awareness to action. See our dedicated Campaigns for Change practice.
2. Strategic Impact Communication: the underlying strategy, audience research, and planning that drives every piece of communication.
3. Innovative branding: brand insight, strategy, design, and delivery for organisations whose impact deserves a voice that does it justice.
Our work is strategic at the core, creative in delivery, and relentless in its pursuit of impact.We are members of Clean Creatives, Creatives for Climate, and 1% for the Planet. We exclusively work with organisations creating a positive impact. We do not work with fossil fuel companies, their trade associations, defence contractors, gambling companies, or surveillance technology firms.
Every project starts with clarity. We define what matters, set the course, and deliver results that make a difference.
We commit fully to our clients’ missions. Responsive, invested, and accountable — we act with the same urgency as they do.
Good enough isn’t good enough.We bring ambition, energy, and creativity that challenge expectations and raise the bar every time.

Our work is organised across our three specialisms, supported by the production and delivery services they require.

We also offer strategy workshops and training, both tailor-made modules and existing workshop topics, delivered online or in person.
We work with four types of changemakers:
1. NGOs, NPOs, and philanthropy infrastructure organisations — including international networks, foundations, and grantmaker support organisations.
2. EU-funded projects and innovation programmes — including Horizon Europe, EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities, and other EU-funded mechanisms.
3. Mission-driven youth, education, and democratic engagement programmes — pan-European and national initiatives working with young people and civic participation.
4. Mission-aligned corporates and ESG/CSR teams — for impact reporting, claims compliance, and communication of measurable social and environmental work.
Notable past and current work includes:
- WINGS Philanthropy: Redesigned the communication strategy and adjusted key messaging to make the work of the global network of philanthropy support organisations more accessible and less complex for its audiences.
- European Youth Parliament: Social media strategy and management for the pan-European programme bringing together young people aged 16–22 to debate and engage with European political and social issues.
- EIT Food (Belgium / Europe): Entrepreneurship recruitment campaign across three startup support programmes. Reached 10 million people, achieved 51% application completion rate, generated 20% of total applications via referrals.
- EIT Manufacturing (Paris / Europe): Brand architecture project. Built a masterbrand-led architecture with a flexible endorsement system, reclassified initiatives by type and maturity, introduced clear naming conventions and a decision-making matrix.
- EIT Urban Mobility (Europe): Social media strategy and brand architecture for the organisation's growth and financial sustainability.
- Ask for Angela: Pro bono brand identity refresh and strategy for the night-life safety NGO. Created the tagline "Here when you need us" and built an inclusive brand system spanning back-of-bar posters to Instagram stories.
- Merck Group (Türkiye) / European Head and Neck Cancer Society: #MakeItMakeSense campaign for the Society's Turkish chapter. Reactivated a dormant Instagram account during Cancer Awareness Week with content combining scientific credibility and audience-friendly tone.
Does Dante Media work with for-profit companies?
Yes — but only with mission-aligned for-profits whose product, service, or impact work is measurable and verifiable. We do not work with fossil fuel companies, their trade associations, defence contractors, gambling, or surveillance technology firms.
Does Dante Media work outside the European Union?
We are based in the EU and most of our clients operate within it, but we work with mission-driven organisations globally — our work with WINGS Philanthropy is one example.
Does Dante Media offer pro bono work?
Yes. We commit a portion of our annual capacity to organisations whose missions we support but who cannot afford full-rate communications. Our brand strategy work for Ask for Angela is one example. To enquire about pro bono work, contact us at hello@dantemedia.eu.
Does Dante Media take on retainer or project work?
Both.
Does Dante Media work as an embedded extension of in-house communication teams?
Yes. This is one of the core ways we work. Many of our long-term clients have small in-house communications teams that need to deliver more than their headcount allows. We embed alongside them to expand their capacity and capabilities, working as an extension of the team rather than as a separate vendor.
Can Dante Media help with CSRD or ECGT compliance communications?
Yes. We help organisations align their marketing communications with their regulated disclosures, and we offer claims audits to identify language that may not be defensible under the EU's Empowering Consumers for the Green Transition (ECGT) Directive, taking effect September 2026.
