Protex AI: Series B Funding Round Announcement

The Challenge: Showcasing a Landmark Funding Round

Dublin-based startup Protex AI has rapidly scaled, securing over €36 million in funding to date. In early 2025, they announced their Series B funding round and needed a high-impact video to mark the occasion. Their goal? A polished, engaging announcement that would not only generate excitement on social media but also serve as a powerful recruitment tool for the year ahead.

The Approach: Crafting a Standout Visual Narrative

To ensure the announcement felt authentic, memorable, and distinctly Irish, we took a structured approach:

1. Research & Concept Development

  • We analysed trending startup funding videto identify what resonates.
  • Developed a set of creative ideas for Protex AI’s marketing team to choose from.
  • Crafted a concept that balanced professionalism with local authenticity.

2. Bringing Dublin to the Forefront

  • To reflect Protex AI’s deep Dublin roots, we filmed at iconic city locations:
    📍 The Guinness Storehouse
    📍 Thomas Street
    📍 Francis Street
    📍 Christchurch
  • The visuals emphasised the authenticity of founders Dan & Ciarán, reinforcing the startup’s identity.

3. Fast-Turnaround Production

  • A one-day shoot with a five-person crew efficiently captured the necessary footage.
  • The full project was delivered within a month, ensuring the video was ready for publication before the PR cycle gained momentum.
