Hexa Letter #3: Fueled with ambition, driven by purpose

Hexa Letter #3: Fueled with ambition, driven by purpose

Almost two years ago, we made the bold decision to rebrand and embrace a new identity under the name Hexa. Changing a brand that you’ve built over a decade is never easy; it’s a risky bet. We decided to change our name to reflect a new ambition: to move beyond B2B SaaS, explore new verticals, and provide different types of support to entrepreneurs beyond pure creation.
