When we present design solutions to our clients, we often invite global manufacturers to see them as well. Over time, both our clients and the manufacturers have come to trust Indigo as a firm that can create great products—and also valuable connections.
POWERFUL CONNECTIONS
“Indigo’s relationships in Taiwan’s manufacturing community gave us a competitive advantage. In 2006, for example, we partnered with Indigo for industrial design and prototyping of our pioneering wireless technology. We were looking for a high-profile OEM partner, so Lawrence Weng introduced us to a board member at Foxlink—Taiwan’s premier manufacturer. Prior to hiring Indigo, we were unsuccessful in getting a meeting with Foxlink. Prior to hiring Indigo, we were unsuccessful in getting a meeting with Foxlink. One year later, our relationship is going strong.”

PARTNERS IN QUALITY
“When Indigo partnered with HT to bring the world’s first smart phones to market, they also brought in Speck to design protective cases. When we needed a specialty plastic injection molding partner for our more complex products with unique shapes and combinations of materials, Indigo recommended HT. Since 2010, Speck has trusted HT for the highest level of precision.”
– Timothy Brophy, Speck
For Quanta, partnership meant the difference between making a great ODM product and building a competitive brand.
THE LANGUAGE OF BRAND
Quanta is an established manufacturer of ODM servers and other components with an impressive list of industry-leading customers. In 2012, they decided to take their knowledge and expertise to market with a hardware line of their own under the name QCT.
While the company has earned a reputation for building exceptional products, the leadership team turned to Cobalt + Indigo to help build a brand worthy of its share of a competitive marketplace.
