Who we are
A small team of journalists, analysts and deal-makers in Berlin.
KRAKUM Media was founded in Berlin in 2016 to promote fact-based, informative and compelling journalism. We connect data-driven journalists with excellent content from research agencies, and we help organisations grow by being worth writing about.
How we started
The founding idea was simple: good research deserves better coverage, and journalists deserve better sources. We built a network on both sides, in the newsrooms and in the research institutions, and we have been the translator between them since.
How we work
- Facts first. We check the method before we check the headline.
- Plain language. If a reader needs a glossary, the piece is not finished.
- Credit where it belongs. Researchers and journalists are named; we are not.
- No surprises. You see every draft, every pitch list and every report.
Why consulting
Over the years clients kept asking us for something different: an introduction to a buyer in another country, a partner in a market they did not know, a second opinion on a sale. The network we had built for stories turned out to be just as useful for deals. In 2026 we made it a service in its own right.
The people
Richard leads the media and research work. Pablo leads the consulting and international introductions. Behind them is a working team of writers, analysts and researchers in Berlin and a partner network across four continents.
