Where we started...

We started out as a small design company, which then morphed into a management consulting company, eventually finding its true identity as a family owned incubator/accelerator/catalyst for impact & growth.

We are proud of this evolution, excited about the ventures we are exploring, and grateful for the partnerships we are creating.

Where we're headed...

We believe that innovative thinking deserves to flourish, and when we believe in a project we strive to stimulate it’s success.

We build outstanding teams. We grow great companies. We invest in ideas.

Our small, dedicated team values ideas, community and conscious projects. We add colour and life to initiatives that require an extra paintbrush or two.

Our Work

Our Current Ventures

HowCreative has developed multiple avenues for fostering and nurturing great projects.

Each of our ventures provides unique opportunities to enable progress and affect the status quo.

Ivanhoe Studios

“A (wo)man of action will always find employment.”

Sir Walter Scott coined the term ‘free lance’ in his novel Ivanhoe in the early 1800s. Since the term’s inception, the life of a ‘free lance’ has always required a fair bit of slogging. Today, Ivanhoe Studios is a coordinated network of top flight designers and developers available to build great digital products. We want to put an end to the slog by ensuring positive and mutually beneficial working relationships between freelancers and businesses.
