What motivates us

The accusation that political parties only care about voters during election campaigns is neither new, original, nor true. Nevertheless, the silence between democratic actors and voters during legislative periods is deafening.

As our society continues to evolve,
political communication often remains entrenched in familiar patterns.

Given the developments of recent months and years, we see this not only as dangerous but also increasingly frustrating, especially since the appropriate tools for building dialogic relationships have long been available. Innovative concepts from large corporate relationship management focus precisely on this: the structured development of relationships based on authentic experiences.

Against this backdrop, we have decided to combine our expertise from science and corporate marketing to launch The Indigo Red, an initiative for Voter Relationship Design.

By assisting democratic parties in establishing sustainable, mutually respectful relationships with their voters, we contribute to strengthening our democracy and enhancing the legitimacy of political decision-making processes.

Our mission

The Indigo Red supports parties and political actors in establishing and maintaining meaningful, long-term relationships with voters. By combining innovative research from the fields of political science, social science, and behavioral science with cutting-edge marketing strategies and technologies, we create relevant experiences for voters.

By fostering an atmosphere of mutual exchange and collaboration, we aim to enhance the political culture in Germany and promote a democratic society characterized by a sense of belonging and engagement.

Our vision

As The Indigo Red, we contribute to creating a dynamic political landscape where every citizen is an active participant in the democratic process and plays a significant role in shaping the future. With our innovative methodology, we aim to promote a transparent and engaged political culture built on trust, respect, and collaboration.

For the voter!
For the party!
For the society!
