Multi-site platform
The hub and every mission on one platform, each on its own address.
Case study · Trade and investment
Opening Barbados to the world’s investors.
The Barbados Country Desk connects exporters and investors with new markets, starting with the Barbados to UAE corridor. We designed, built and run the members’ platform and the network of mission websites behind it.

- Desks behind one front door
The brief
One front door for a whole country.
Exporters, investors and Barbados’s missions abroad each had their own way in. The Desk needed one place where members find each other, verify each other and get a deal done, with every embassy, high commission and consulate on the same foundations.
- Business and investor directory
- Private deal rooms with NDAs
- Advisory and service desk
- A site for every mission abroad
What we built
A platform built to be trusted.
Members-only areas
Directory, Deal Room and events behind a membership the Desk approves.
Secure data rooms
A click-through NDA, a watermarked viewer and a record of every view.
Help desk with AI
Tickets with response targets and a Help Centre that answers first.
Executive dashboard
One view of the investment pipeline across the missions and the Desk.
Private by design
Two-factor sign-in for staff, and no tracking cookies or analytics.
The missions network
One network, many doors.
Each Barbados embassy, high commission and consulate can have its own website on the platform, on its own address, run by its own staff in a shared CMS. A new mission is set up from one form, without a developer.
- A website for every mission
- Mission staff edit their own pages
- News and events shared across the network
On film
Business and community.
We film for the Desk too. This promotional piece with Early Health Group’s DriveFitt was shot on the beach at golden hour and over Bridgetown from the air.
