About us

We are Berlin Bytes. We are young and creative, we value diversity and freedom of expression — you’ve probably heard it from every single Berlin based digital agency though. What makes us different is the way we collaborate with each other and our partners. Since we offer full-cycle digital services (from UX/UI Design, Web Development to Marketing and Product Ownership) to our clients, we approach each job as our own in-house project.

You can expect to dive deep into a great number of industries — our spectrum of clients ranges from upcoming Berlin Fashion Start-Ups to large Corporate Infrastructure Providers. This allows us to provide you with a great diversity of projects that matches your skills and aspirations.

We've got two office spaces at the border of Prenzlauer Berg and Friedrichshain. Berliners know these two neighbourhoods as a young-professionals-turned-parents borough and an alternative-Boxy-Techno-scene place. And we are happy to say we are both. We are where family meets party, where free spirit meets structured approach, where experience meets curiosity.
