Protecting Marine Wildlife & Habitats

Sea Shepherd protects marine wildlife through direct action, but this made it harder to engage the corporate partners needed to fund the work.
MEK created a digital platform that translated Sea Shepherd’s frontline activism into a proposition businesses could get behind without diluting what makes Sea Shepherd so uncompromising.

Sea Shepherd needed to grow its funding base beyond its traditional activist audience and partners to securing corporate sponsorship for ongoing direct-action campaigns.
The challenge was to make the case for corporate support without making Sea Shepherd look corporate, giving potential partners a clear understanding of where their money goes, what it enables, and the impact it creates.

MEK developed a digital corporate partnership platform that translated Sea Shepherd’s DIY activist aesthetic into a more considered, investment-ready experience without losing its urgency or edge.
A modular digital design system brings together striking field photography, frontline conservation stories and clear pathways through Sea Shepherd’s campaigns, showing potential partners exactly what their support enables. The experience balances the rawness of Sea Shepherd’s activism with the credibility needed to build trust and secure corporate support.
