Watson’s Inspiration

This agency firmly believes in the power of a great idea and its ability to transform a brand. When founding the firm in 2015, Watson was inspired to rethink the traditional agency model, replacing it with a highly curated approach to professional service inspired by the ‘Hollywood model’ of business. The result was great since the firm could give a better quality of work, high client satisfaction levels, and better turnover.

Clearstream aims to make a difference and to do its part in bettering humanity. Whether through publicizing life-changing work by non-profits, launching an innovative App that improves communities or working with world-renowned educational institutions, the company’s goal is to educate and empower.

Where it All Began: the First Campaign

The agency’s first client campaign was pioneering work in the field of Artificial Intelligence. Clearstream’s early work in artificial intelligence well before the AI ‘Goldrush’ hit helped it to stake its claim in that space. It had also brought the agency several innovative clients that are changing the world.
