Our relationship with MANOVERBOARD is a great fit for a company like ours which needed a simple and elegant Web presence. Working with Andrew has been easy from Day 1. We've been especially impressed by the work he's done to professionalize our Thematic Research Highlights document which has given us an excellent design model for our reports going forward.

Generation

Generation Investment Management, co-founded by Vice President Al Gore and former CEO of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, David Blood, is a financial services firm headquartered in London, U.K. and Washington, D.C. The company, founded in 2004, asked MANOVERBOARD to create a sophisticated online presence for its public launch. In the three years since we designed the Generation website, the company has acquired more than $1 billion under management.

The Generation website articulates the company's philosophy, objectives, and values and provides critical information for prospective clients. Both Mr. Gore and Mr. Blood were involved in the strategic and creative production of the website, which is now in its third full iteration.

MANOVERBOARD has provided three iterations of the website since 2004 and continues to act as Generation's online and offline creative partner. MANOVERBOARD designed a number of the company's reports to its clients, including its well-received Thematic Research Highlights report in 2006, as well as a number the firm's presentation decks.

We also provided identity design for the Generation Foundation, a new non-profit arm of the firm that will focus on distributing 5% of corporate profits toward organizations focusing on sustainable economic, environmental and geopolitical activities.
