Yellow Rebrands as Strichpunkt Identity

Basel-based creative agency Yellow will operate under the name Strichpunkt Identity from May 20, 2026, becoming the Swiss branch of the German branding agency Strichpunkt while remaining a legally independent Swiss entity. Both agencies are part of the MYTY Group network. The existing Basel team will continue to run the office, with Yellow founder Reto Meyer taking the role of Managing Director. The move gives the Swiss office access to Strichpunkt’s resources across Berlin, Hamburg and Stuttgart (Strichpunkt has around 180 employees) and aims to jointly promote a brand model called “True Identity.” A coexistence agreement exists with an unrelated Winterthur-based firm that shares the Strichpunkt name.
