Astar was established with the vision of becoming the first original African network Agency - to compete with global agency networks, first on our turn and then, on theirs - by providing the highest standard of strategic and creative services to local, regional and global clients. Astar is a brand and social communication company that has been established to raise the standard of communication in Africa and respond to the growing need of countries, companies and international organizations that are operating throughout the continent. Astar brings together the best minds from around the world in the fields of branding, advertising, social communication, design and internet to create a perfect blend of global experience with local expertise. Astar is promoted by the owners of Tewanney Studio and Phonenix promotions, two leaders in the field of advertising and event management. However, Astar is not an expansion, it is not a progression, it is not even an evolution. Astar is a radically new concept, a paradigm shift in the way communication industry operates.
