Stift & Blei

Stift & Blei was founded in 2024 in Munich, Germany, by Konstantinos Angourias, bringing together a handpicked, international team of experts. The agency emerged from a recognition that while services in the communications field are often interchangeable, the people delivering them are not. Drawing on over a decade of experience in agencies, corporate consulting, and law firms, the founder built Stift & Blei as a collective that pools resources from linguistics, cultural and media studies, communication design, PR, and graphic design on a project-by-project basis.

An Interdisciplinary Approach to Corporate Communications

Based at 28 Franziskanerstrasse in Munich, Stift & Blei operates at the intersection of law, business, and technology. The agency describes its working philosophy as shaped by design thinking, which means approaching each project by thinking in larger contexts, abstracting core messages, and connecting knowledge about cultural specifics with technical expertise from various client fields. This interdisciplinary method is applied across all services, from certified translations to multilingual editorial work. Stift & Blei emphasizes that individual consulting meets efficient project management, and classic translation craftsmanship meets contemporary working methods in every engagement.
