WD Biotech
An early-stage food tech fund stepping into the spotlight — shifting from quietly funding cultivated meat to publicly educating the people who’ll eat it. We helped shape the story, then built the brand, website, and content to carry it.
From quiet fund to public educator
Educating the consumers, partners, and policy makers who’ll shape this technology requires more than capital — it requires a brand. WD Biotech came to SLM with no public-facing identity, no website, and no content. They needed a foundation built from voice down to visual, and a brand confident enough to open conversations, not just close investments.
Voice first, then every surface
We started where the brand starts — purpose, mission, voice — then built outward across every surface the fund relies on to connect with founders, partners, and the public.
A brand built from the inside out.
Three 1:1 brand strategy sessions with our founder to define purpose, mission, voice, and the messaging pillars that would carry WD Biotech’s story across the website, the feed, and every conversation that came next.
An identity and home that match the mission.
A full brand identity — logomark, palette, typography, usage rules — plus a custom website that lets curious visitors find their way into the work without friction.
A library built for the public debut.
On-brand photography and a content library ready to launch WD Biotech’s social presence — captured to live well beyond a single post and seed every channel the team is about to step into.
From no public identity to a brand ready to launch
A fund that arrived with no public-facing presence left with a complete foundation — voice, brand, website, and a content library built for the public debut.
Founder to founder, before the full build
Some clients arrive knowing exactly what they need. WD Biotech’s founder didn’t — she wanted to think out loud first. So before any full branding engagement, she booked 1:1 strategy time with Danielle Williams, founder and CEO of SociaLight Media. A series of founder-to-founder sessions to work through the questions that usually come bundled into a brand project — purpose, mission, voice, audience, messaging. The deck below is a slice of that work.
- Refined mission, vision, purpose, and values
- Brand-as-a-person + audience & impact map
- Voice chart — five traits, with how-to-use and how-to-avoid
- Five messaging pillars with content angles for each
- Tagline + brand statement final language
- Homework + next-step roadmap
A site that brings the mission to life
We designed and developed wd-biotech.com to give the fund a digital home that matches the boldness of the work — warm, accessible, and built to invite curious visitors into the conversation rather than gatekeep it.
A visual system that matches the voice
A complete brand identity — logomark, palette, typography, and usage rules — designed to carry WD Biotech’s warm, confident voice into every surface the fund uses to connect with founders, partners, and the public.
A film made for their homepage
A short brand film produced for the WD Biotech website — built to introduce the company and set the tone the moment a visitor lands.
A library built for the public debut
On-brand photography built to launch WD Biotech’s social presence — captured ahead of their public rollout so the team has a deep library to pull from across the website, decks, outreach, and the channels they’re about to step into.
Reels built to stop the scroll
Vertical short-form video produced alongside the shoot — reels ready to introduce WD Biotech across Instagram, TikTok, and every feed where their audience is already watching.
