WeTransfer & Ello Team Up in Support of Creators

BOULDER, Colo., March 29, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- We need the artists, designers, creators and thinkers — the doers now more than ever. We need to lead with creativity. We must highlight work and ideas that challenge unacceptable social norms and reflect the world we aspire to see and experience for generations to come. When Ello says Resist, we mean that together we possess the power to challenge the status quo. Together we can put forth a better vision, a vision to withstand - a vision that serves as proof against the people, ideas and movements that strive to pull us apart.

WeTransfer's Not For Print sponsorship exemplifies the way Ello is providing creator brands a more meaningful way to connect with creatives and foster creative community. "We are proud to be partnering with Ello to support this issue of Not For Print. We believe in the power of creative ideas to challenge and change the way we see the world, and we are excited to see the submissions," says WeTransfer of its partnership with Ello.

Ello CEO Todd Berger added, "It's very cool to be collaborating with WeTransfer. We're longtime fans. We've been using WeTransfer to share large art files for years. As businesses we hold the same values, particularly in our deep-rooted commitment to creativity and promoting creators. This collaboration is definitely going expose more of the killer work on Ello to more people who value creativity."
