About

Bruketa&* is an independent strategic consultancy specializing in reputation, brands, communications, and transformation. We help organizations increase their value by shaping the way the world perceives them.

Today, an organization’s value is defined not only by what it does, but also by what people believe it can become. For more than thirty years, we have helped companies, institutions, cities, and countries create long-term value by shaping how they are seen, understood, and remembered.

Working at the intersection of strategy, business, culture, design, communications, and technology, we help organizations become more relevant, desirable, and influential. We believe that reputation and trust are now as valuable as capital, technology, or infrastructure. That’s why we don’t just build brands – we help organizations define their role in society and turn strategy into stories that people believe in.

Our work spans strategic positioning, brand development, communication platforms, organizational transformation, and the design of products, services, experiences, and social initiatives.

Questions That Will Shape the Next Decade

Today, we help leaders answer the questions that will define the decade ahead.

How do organizations build trust in an era of technological disruption? How do brands remain relevant in a world of constant change? How do companies attract talent, customers, and investment? And how do they build lasting influence?


* Bruketa& was founded in Zagreb in 1995 by Davor Bruketa and Nikola Žinić. Between 1995 and 2017, the agency operated independently under the name Bruketa&Žinić OM. From 2017 to 2026, it was part of WPP under the name Bruketa&Žinić&Grey.

Others About Us

“The collaboration with Bruketa&Žinić&Grey Agency is a one-of-a-kind business experience. They are frisky, provocative, casual, at times even intemperate, willingly or not, as befits best funky solutions, ambushing what’s beyond repair and conventional (advertising) patterns in the Croatian economy. Boldly promoting creative economies they also contribute to the evolution of culture of design in our midst, and its social, economic and cultural recognition in the best possible way. If you cannot surrender to emotions and fantasy, or place “your head below your heart, stomach and groins”, steer clear from this sort of collaboration. With them!”

Manager of Business Communications at Adris Group

Corporate projects rarely encounter such openness to creativity.

“We have collaborated with Bruketa&Žinić&Grey Agency on a flagship strategic project – the development of the new Studio Moderna visual identity. The project was terribly complex, and required higher order thinking and looking at the brief from different perspectives, including corporate identity, new brand architecture, visual intercorrelations between our passion brands, establishing a new foothold for our dominant parent brand, as well as effective launching of the new identity at all customer touch points, taking into account rather prominent specificities and diversities of each of our six sales channels. Our collaboration was truly impeccable. A fantastic team from the Agency that was fully committed and available at any given moment. They showed the highest level of professionalism, expertise and thinking in each and every aspect of the project. I will undoubtedly use this collaboration as a benchmark for cooperation with agencies for a long time.”

Cutting-Edge Delivery of Facts and Figures (which) Makes Consumers Take Notice

„Bruketa&Žinić&Grey are extremely creative. They are smart. They are young in mind. They are fast in ideas implementation. They are truly part of our team. I can rely on them. I never hear „no“ from them. I never hear „this is not possible“. They always provide a solution. In leading a business it is very important to have a supportive team, and they are exactly that“

“I think of them more like partners in crime than an agency or a vendor. I can recall several times when I called them for help and they have always been there for us. I like working with them a lot, they know us perfectly and they are always ready to jump in. The listen, but also challenge us when needed.”

“Inspired by our Mindful Luxury philosophy, the agency created a visual identity as a perfect epitome of everything the Maslina Resort stands for. They helped us find the best color palette and design our distinctive logo, and in so doing, managed to sustain our minimal yet chic vision from the start to the very finish.”

“Excellent and stimulating cooperation with a lot of attention to detail and perfectionism, regardless of the size of the project. Most of all, I would emphasize the desire to get the most out of everything, even though this meant new discussions and new arguments, but all for the purpose of achieving results.”
