Om Azote
Azote is a communications agency deeply rooted in science, striving to accelerate the transition to a sustainable future. Guided by our tagline, "Share Knowledge – Inspire Change"we aim to bridge the gap between research and society—making science useful and accessible to all who need it.
We are no ordinary communications agency
Our work revolves around two central areas:
- Delivering research-based knowledge to influential societal stakeholders: We assist researchers in reaching decision-makers in politics and business, enabling informed and sustainable choices.
- Translating science into business value: By helping companies integrate sustainability into their operations, we support them in creating positive impact while strengthening their competitiveness.
On Azote we believe that inspiring and relevant communication has the power to change the world.
Azotes history
Azotes founders, Jerker Lokrantz and Robert Kautsky, met through a shared passion for photography and its power to convey meaningful messages. During a photography trip in West Africa, they began exploring how images could reflect the interaction between humans, nature, and society. One late summer night by a campfire in Mali, they decided to start a business. The name 'Azote' appeared when Robert opened a French dictionary—‘Azote’ means nitrogen, the element that makes up 78% of the earth’s atmosphere and is essential for all life.
Since then, the world has changed dramatically, and we now find ourselves in the midst of a major societal transformation. Today, Azote is a full-service communications agency supporting researchers, academic institutions, civil society, and businesses in becoming active contributors to the transition needed to secure the well-being of future generations.
