Why we work in these sectors
50DEGREES was founded by Jack Abbiss, a former Royal Navy officer. We work with maritime, defence, technology and engineering businesses because we know how they operate. Too often, strong engineering is let down by how it is presented: capability buried in a PDF, a trade show stand that says nothing, or a website written for nobody in particular. We exist to fix that.
What that means for you
Several of our team hold technical qualifications and are ex-military, so clearance levels, survey methods and procurement routes don’t need explaining. Strategy, filming, design and websites sit under one roof, so you brief once. We film on land, at sea and from the air, and use 3D animation for what can’t be filmed at all. Security, export control and client confidentiality are part of the brief from the first meeting.
Our values
Our values shape how we work with clients and the standard of what we deliver.
Integrity
We say what we can deliver, then deliver it. If something falls outside what we do well, we will say so and point you to someone who can.
Precision
Technical audiences notice mistakes. We check the detail, use the right terms and get sign-off from the people who know the kit.
Discretion
Much of our clients’ work is sensitive. We handle material, sites and information with the same care you do.
