Socium Ventures

Investing in emerging growth companies to help scale to their full potential.

Back to work

Changing Minds:

When Cox Enterprises established a new evergreen fund to facilitate innovation at Cox operating companies, they turned to Cox Ideabar to develop foundational brand elements. The branding drew from the Latin word “socium,” meaning partner or ally, to signify Cox’s enduring partnership and long-term investments. This concept informed the brand positioning and development of a visual identity system to bring the fund to life.   

Moving Markets:

Cox Enterprises’ long-term strategic investment strategy took off with the launch announcement of Socium Ventures to help build and grow businesses in emerging sectors to improve the world for future generations and solve the most pressing problems of our time.​  

“We’re excited to launch Socium Ventures, Cox’s latest investment into the future,” said Cox Enterprises Chairman and CEO Alex Taylor. “We’ll be looking for early-stage businesses that are solving big problems and leaving the world in a better place for the next generation.”

Socium Ventures emboldens future generations of innovators while staying true to Cox’s 125-year legacy of forging new pathways and doing the right thing. The design of the website underscores this forward-leaning focus while staying grounded in the brand’s visual identity system.
