Sharpen
Sharpen's elite designers turn smart investments into exceptional exits.
The startup landscape has changed.
Usability and customer experience are the key differentiators separating good products from exceptional investments. 
But it’s almost impossible to find business-savvy design consultants who understand the full product lifecycle—
from the needs of a pre-seed startup to the customer- and employee-experience challenges of a game-changing market leader and a lucrative exit.
This is why startup investors, founders, and enterprise intrapreneurs choose Sharpen Partners. Our team of veteran product designers draw on diverse careers in research, technology, architecture, business, and the arts to assemble 
the perfect team for your new or re-imagined product.
