Alexander Broy is founder and owner of broy new media. For many years he has been our platinum partner for web programming and WordPress presentations. He is not only webmaster, but also host for our own web pages and blogs, as well as for weblogs of our customers. As a trained cameraman, Alexander Broy is also the best advisor on video PR. He has made films and interviews for ARD and BR. His expertise is indispensable when it comes to any kind of moving image. Shaky videos can be a viral hit at times.

vibrio is a signatory of the “Charter of Diversity”. The document signed by Federal Minister Aydan Özoğuz states: “The aim of implementing the ‘Charter of Diversity’ in our organisation is to create a working environment free from prejudice. All employees should be valued – regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age, sexual orientation and identity.
In spring 2018, for example, we conducted a small survey among Bavarian companies on the status of diversity management.

These are by no means all partners of the agency vibrio. Those who live long have many friends. And we have been living for a long time. I would especially like to take this opportunity to thank Simone Naumann and her team. Most of the photos for this website were taken in her photo studio, where vibrio employees can be seen. And they are great pictures. Of great employees. They already notice: this is a small personal note from the agency boss. But I like my partners – and my colleagues. And that’s something you can say 😉
Some photos in continuous text – always colorful, always square – do not introduce team members. Most of these small “theme illustrations” come from another photographer whom I really appreciate: Kalle Jipp. His pictures are available at Photocase, for example. In our agency blog I once interviewed him about image rights and stock photography.
