We love a little flashback Friday, but more than that we love watching our team's families grow up over the years! Next gen creatives and media specialists...?

A new brand needs a new website. Take a look at ours.

Just like the shows you're likely to watch on Channel 31 and 44, we took an out of the box approach to promoting the new CTV+ community television streaming app. Keep an eye out for the posters, scan the QR code and watch different this week.

This week these two celebrated a combined 21 years at Keep Left – 13 for Gill, 8 for Tim.

Forget about Adam and Eve. If you want to see an actual Heaven on Earth, head to the new National Herbarium of NSW in Mount Annan. A divine collection of more than one million plant specimens, this state-of-the-art scientific facility is also filled with beautiful minds.

We’re proud to be helping all the fine boffins of the Australian Institute of Botanical Science as they find new ways to protect nature – Keep Left managed the PR launch of the new facility as well as two days of exclusive sneak peak media tours onsite.

It's not every day your branding work makes its way into every news outlet across the country, but the rise of the Teal Independents has meant we've seen our work for Dr Monique Ryan pretty regularly. So great to have strong independent voices, with positive ideas on the climate and equality, being heard around Australia. We extend a big congrats to Dr Ryan and everyone involved.

Are we heading towards a world of liberated work? A world in which each of us can work how, when and wherever we choose, without having to be in an office between 9-5? Check out the report from Hub Australia – and you might find yourself thinking that the answer is yes.

Indigenous cultures may date back more than 50,000 years – but that doesn’t mean that they’re not fashion-forward. Clothes-minded people got to see some stylish proof of this fact first-hand in March, at the Melbourne Fashion Festival’s First Nations Runway.

Thanks to our client, Architectus, for sponsoring the event – and getting Keep Left to help spread the word.

We're looking for a highly organised people person. Is that you?

Congratulations to Dylan Alcott who ended his outstanding tennis career on Thursday, after a massive week being named Australian of the year 2022! A champ on and off the court, we can’t wait to see where his career takes him next.

The Keep Left team were lucky enough to work with Dylan recently, for our client ANZ Australia. We spoke about all things tennis and finance–there's more crossover than you'd think! Take a read of this article where Dylan shares some of his pro tips on applying the rules of tennis that could help you ace your finances. Take a look!

How to ace your finances with Dylan Alcott | ANZ Tennis champ Dylan Alcott discusses how to apply the rules of tennis to managing your money and how it can help you ace your savings goals.

Keep Left recently celebrated 20 years in business! While reflecting on these wild two decades, we asked current and previous Lefties how Keep Left has impacted their lives. Here's what our lovely Client Services Director Jessica Williams said.

"I could use this to talk about career opportunities and learnings – of which there has been many. But when I think about Keep Left and how it has changed my life, I can’t go past the relationships I have formed in the past three and a half years. It has been life changing.

Just recently, at my 30th birthday, I had two long tables, one of which was filled with KL crew past and present (and I wish I could have fit more). So, in essence, Lefties have become 50% of my favourite people in this world.

Keep Left has an innate ability of finding amazing people with unique attributes. And I like to think that Keep Left is a place where everyone feels comfortable to be exactly who they are.

The support and encouragement both professionally and personally that I have received from my Lefties has blown me away on multiple occasions – and the entire management team should be proud of the network of legends they have built across two states.

Happy 20 years!"
