Minneapolis and Boston, November 4, 2024 – MVP Marketing + Design, an award-winning digital agency based in Minneapolis and Boston, proudly announces that it has won Gold and Honorable Mention awards for its Private Equity and Investment Banking websites developed for Wind Point Partners and Republic Capital, respectively, at the 2024 MarCom Awards.
MVP’s Gold-winning website for Wind Point Partners, a Chicago-based private equity firm with approximately $6 billion in assets under management (AUM) and a track record of over 90 platform acquisitions and 400 add-ons since 1984, creates a powerful first impression with a homepage video that engages executives, business owners, institutional investors, intermediaries, and potential employees.
The site features 20 MVP-produced onsite and remote interviews with PortCo CEOs and Wind Point Executive Advisor Partners (EAPs), consolidated into four video case studies. Click here to view these case studies or visit our video landing page for more information.
Wind Point’s custom-designed MVP TeamMate℠ website offers a clean, intuitive, and visually distinctive interface. An original homepage video introduces the firm visually, while expertly crafted copy conveys the company’s narrative. The user experience is enhanced by organized, easy-to-navigate pages, strategic calls-to-action (CTAs) to boost engagement, and targeted messaging tailored for each of Wind Point’s key audiences.
MVP’s website for Republic Capital Group, which earned an Honorable Mention, supports Republic’s presence in New York City and roots in Houston. Republic is a leading investment bank specializing in innovative investment banking services for wealth and asset management firms. In 2022 and 2023, the firm completed transactions exceeding $150 billion and was named “Boutique Investment Banking Firm of the Year” by The M&A Advisor. To elevate its market positioning and showcase its unique approach, Republic partnered with MVP to create a website that emphasizes its expertise, strategic transaction structuring, and focus on cultural alignment—differentiating it from larger bulge-bracket firms. MVP’s design integrates elements of Republic’s distinctive logo, using it as a container for a New York City flyover video, while animations such as “People. Purpose. Partnership.” and other interactive graphics enhance viewer engagement.
Dick Weinrib, CEO and Founder of MVP Marketing + Design, commented, “We’re proud of the partnerships we’ve built with these two industry-leading firms. On behalf of the MVP team, I’d like to congratulate Ron Lieberman, Head of Investor Relations for Wind Point Partners, and John Langston, CEO and Founder of Republic Capital, for their invaluable support and collaboration, which contributed to our joint success. As we say at MVP, ‘we look good when (our partners) look great,’ and this MarCom recognition is a testament to our commitment to client success. Special thanks to all the MVP teammates in design, development, and project management who contributed to this achievement.”
