The NP11 is the business-led voice for the North that brings together the 11 Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) from across the North of England.
Since its announcement in July 2018 by the Rt Hon Jake Berry MP, the new NP11 required a dynamic identity and clear brand vision in order to effectively position the North as an innovative business location with a major role to play in driving UK prosperity.
Working in partnership with our associates at NGI Solutions and other NP11 delivery partners, we conducted a stakeholder consultation exercise to understand the collective aims of the 11 LEPs, identifying synergies, priorities and needs for clarity.
Using this insight we were able to create an impactful brand articulation and identity setting out values and tone-of-voice. We also developed a comprehensive set of brand guidelines. The new brand was rolled out across all platforms in preparation for the joint NP11 / Convention of the North’s summit, held in September 2019 and hosted by the BBC’s Steph McGovern.

“Twentyseven and NGI Solutions were commissioned to conduct a comprehensive stakeholder engagement, brand identity and articulation project to support the launch of the NP11 at the 2019 Convention of the North summit and beyond.
The team worked exceptionally well in challenging and complex circumstances to deliver a strong and effective brand that has been embraced by all NP11 stakeholders. We’d be more than happy to work with them again if the need arose.”
