Virtual Identity's story began in 1995, born from a vision to bridge the gap between brands and the burgeoning networked society. What started as an agency focused on developing web-based solutions for brand management and corporate communication has evolved into a significant player in the digital transformation landscape. Over the years, Virtual Identity has expanded its footprint, establishing offices not just in its founding city of Freiburg, Germany, but also in Munich, Vienna (Austria), and Porto (Portugal), demonstrating a commitment to serving a diverse clientele across Europe. The company's journey has been marked by a consistent dedication to understanding the intricate business processes and customer touchpoints of their clients. This deep-seated empathy, combined with a relentless pursuit of technological innovation, has allowed them to craft bespoke digital solutions that deliver tangible business value.

Throughout its more than two decades of operation, Virtual Identity has cultivated a team of digital experts passionate about solving everyday problems through technology. Their approach is rooted in two fundamental skills: leveraging data insights for business optimization and employing empathy to create relevant and engaging user experiences. This dual focus has enabled them to build a comprehensive portfolio of services, ranging from data analytics and UX design to software engineering and digital marketing. They have embraced modern architectural patterns like MACH (Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native SaaS, Headless) and have become early adopters and proficient users of technologies like Headless CMS, partnering with platforms such as Storyblok and Contentful. This technological foresight ensures that the solutions they develop are not only effective today but are also scalable and adaptable for the future. Their client roster, which includes prominent names like Siemens, Roche, BMW, and Caritas, stands as a testament to their ability to transform complex business challenges into digital victories, solidifying their reputation as a trusted partner in the digital realm.
