More than a decade ago, we secured a client before we secured our name. Nice. After much name-storming which led nowhere, we eventually looked to the seminal Greek culture of long ago.
Inspired by “strategos” (strategy) and “agos” (leader), we arrived at “Ago”. A preceding “A” seemed in good place – apart from getting us listed first on any alpha order listing – to connote the individual in us. And so, we are “Aago”, pronounced “Arago” as in Tolkein’s “Aragorn”, firm believers and advocates of strategy before anything else.
The morphing letters, aago, of our logo encapsulates our brand promise of enabling change through evolution or revolution, retaining only the best of traits, so that brands emerge stronger and more distinct.
Jean Tan leads Aago Consulting, which she founded in 2008.

We celebrate being different and making a difference – whether it is a case of striving for market leadership for our clients or making time to cultivate the individual in us.
It is this revelry in diversity that inspires us to work with brands from far and wide.
