We help companies grow—
at every stage.

Different challenges. Different playbooks. One partner built for both.

For Startups

Growth-Focused

For startups, we focus on growth: building strong brands, designing compelling products, and developing content and positioning that help young companies earn trust, attract customers, and scale.

Brand Product Design Content Marketing
For Large Companies

Innovation-Focused

For large companies, we focus on innovation: supporting internal teams with the tools, insights, and frameworks needed to explore new opportunities, launch ventures, and stay ahead of disruption.

Focus Areas

Innovation Ventures Artificial Intelligence Strategy

Two ends of the spectrum.
One partner for both.

At different stages, companies face very different challenges. Startups are driven by bold ambition. To succeed, they must innovate quickly, get noticed, earn trust, and deliver real value—often with limited resources and little margin for error.

Established market leaders face a different reality. Growth is harder to sustain, disruption comes fast, and complacency can be costly. To stay relevant, these organizations must rediscover the innovative mindset that fuels startups.

Companies at these two ends of the spectrum have different needs.
We serve both.

For startups, we help lay the foundation for growth through brand, product, and thought leadership. For large organizations, we bring startup thinking, design-led problem solving, and innovation strategy to help them evolve. Whether you're becoming something bigger—or reinventing what you already are—EPIC is built to help you move forward.

Founder & Principal, EPIC

EPIC was founded by Edwin Philogene, a veteran leader in brand marketing and innovation with decades of experience spanning early-stage startups and global enterprises.

On the early-stage front, Edwin has spearheaded key integrated marketing and growth initiatives for industry-defining startups including SiriusXM, Tumblr, Bond, and The Crypto App. In the world of large multinationals, Edwin has led major innovation efforts for category leaders like telecom giant Ericsson, award-winning global ad agency network BBDO (where he led the agency's digital innovation practice), and Exelon, America's largest energy distribution company, where he served as Entrepreneur In Residence managing internal startup incubation activity and investing in early-stage cleantech ventures.

Edwin's vision was to combine his extensive experience across the corporate spectrum with cutting-edge methodologies and a team of world-class professionals to offer services that provide an edge. The result was EPIC.
