The establishment of Exozet Lab Hamburg represents a strategic expansion of the Berlin-based digital agency Exozet into the Hamburg market, formed in partnership with the local agency Pop Rockets. The primary objective of this new facility is to accelerate digital transformation for clients across diverse sectors, including automotive, media, and environmental services. By leveraging specialized methodologies such as design sprints and creative prototyping, the lab aims to compress traditional development timelines, enabling the creation and testing of functional prototypes within a single week.
The core thesis of the initiative centers on the necessity of speed and co-creation in an increasingly competitive digital landscape. The lab utilizes a collaborative model that integrates client-specific market knowledge with Exozet’s two decades of digital expertise. This approach facilitates the rapid development of Minimal Viable Products (MVPs) and relies on close operational synergy with the agency’s existing team of over 150 professionals in Berlin.
The Hamburg team is composed of veterans from the local games industry, whose background in gaming technology serves as a foundational advantage for solving complex digital challenges. While the lab is a newly formed entity, it maintains a growth-oriented strategy for 2018 and actively engages with the local Hamburg games community to augment its project teams. Early successes include the development of multisensoric virtual reality experiences and mobile applications, demonstrating the practical application of their rapid-development framework.
