Nami Studios works with The Collaborative to translate the academic research of Rhode Island scholars into accessible insights that support public policy decisions and provide data and evidence for state leaders and community organizations.

When The Rhode Island Foundation took on the Buy Local RI initiative from the Lt. Gov's office, they wanted to infuse the brand with some new energy. Rhode Islanders are scrappy, cool and fiercely local and they wanted to bring some of that into the brand. But, they also wanted to keep elements from the existing brand, like the anchor and the rooster.

The Roger Williams Initiative was conceived of and funded by generous philanthropists Letitia and John Carter. Their mission was to establish a sense of place, awareness, and pride for all Rhode Islanders by providing resources about Rhode Island's founder, Roger Williams, and his teachings. The interactive resources materials were designed and created by Nami Studios, with additional resources curated by the project team of Ted Widmer, Theresa Moore, Nami Studios, and the contributions and support of many partners.
