English
Mann beißt Hund [man bites dog] – Come again? Who, what, when, where, how?
New ideas always raise questions: Why is a communications agency called like this? Who came up with that idea? What does it mean?
Back in 1882 Charles A. Dana, publisher of the New York Sun, famously stated: “When a dog bites a man, that’s not news. But when a man bites a dog, that’s news.”
Our agency is called Mann beißt Hund because we follow this long-established journalistic principle as a general guideline for communications. The claim is simple: The unusual attracts your attention, not the ordinary. With our clients we develop exceptional and unique topics, visuals and channels for communications, on- and offline.
Who are we?
Mann beißt Hund is located in Hamburg’s creative district of Bahrenfeld. The agency was founded in 1999 by Nicola Wessinghage and Marcus Flatten who both have their roots in journalism. Mann beißt Hund employs 13 permanent members of staff with humanistic and scientific backgrounds. We work together with a network of graphic designers, web designers, programmers, and photographers. Our partners are tried and tested. They follow the same philosophy as we do.
Who are our clients?
We focus on communications in the fields of education, science and health. Among our clients you will find universities, suppliers of school products like CASIO, e-learning providers, scientific institutions like DESY and health-oriented organizations like the German Association of the Diagnostica Industry.
