I am thrilled to endorse Teacher Chris for his outstanding Design Thinking class, which has been an instrumental learning experience for me. Through his expert guidance, I have gained a deep understanding of various design thinking methods such as affinity clustering and stakeholder mapping. These techniques have proven to be incredibly valuable in my professional career, allowing me to efficiently organize and prioritize ideas, and better understand the perspectives of all stakeholders involved in a project. Teacher Chris's support throughout the course has been exceptional, and I am grateful for his dedication to ensuring that his students not only grasp the concepts, but also learn how to apply them effectively in real-world scenarios. I highly recommend Teacher Chris's Design Thinking class to anyone seeking to enhance their skills and gain a competitive edge in today's fast-paced business landscape.

I enjoyed working with Chris so much on the re-branding of my first TV channel that I went back to work with him and his fantastic team at Red for my second channel. Chris is truly unique in the agency business. Rather than focusing on billable hours, Chris works tirelessly for his clients to meet every detail of their requirements. Furthermore, his vast local knowledge about Vietnamese consumer trends is invaluable when building forward-thinking designs and brands. I've worked with quite a few agencies both here in Vietnam and elsewhere in Asia and no one comes close to the quality & service that Chris provides. Work with him. You won't regret it. Really.

The team led by Chris Elkin had been our best marketing agent who always delivered beyond our expectation. They always put us and our needs at the center of interest and attention by proactively listening and timely responding to our request. Their creative works on myAccess launch - the Bank's first online platform in Vietnam - was excellent in terms of marketing creativeness and cost-effective. My team and I also found red team friendly and trustworthy professional individuals. I recommend the red team for their creative intelligence and reliability to anyone who is looking for an outperforming creative partner.
