Go Media is a creative agency from Cleveland, Ohio that specializes in branding, print design, art direction, and web development. We’re the ones who put on Weapons of Mass Creation Fest. We also sell stock art, templates, and design files to fellow designers on the Arsenal and write articles and tutorials on the GoMediaZine.

Northcoast Zeitgeist is the brainchild of Casey Myers and Joseph Hughes, two hard-working, progressive Midwesterners located in Kent, Ohio. Part design, part photography, part civic boosterism, Northcoast Zeitgeist is an outlet for our creative energies and an attempt to highlight the best of what our little corner of the world has to offer. More importantly, here at Northcoast Zeitgeist, it’s a scientific fact that we know what’s hot. To put it simply, we have a great eye and a soft spot for all things modern (note the second word in our name).

We live in the greatest city in Northeast Ohio, and aren’t afraid to brag about it. We recently bought a house here, and are hard at work restoring it to its old glory. When we’re not creating or bloggin’ it, Casey is hard at work on a doctorate and Joseph is an art director at Melamed Riley. We are joined in this adventure by our cat, Bea Arthur, who, despite being adorable, would eat us if she was big enough, as well as our wonderful pooch, Quigley, who loves naps and hates our mailman.

Neoventures is an evolutionary event creation, design and management firm with a passion for creativity, community and integration of the latest experiential technologies and applications.

Earnest believes that creativity keeps the world moving forward. And we sell the nuts and bolts that hold it together.

Go Media, the driving force behind WMC Fest, started the Arsenal in 2006 as a way to sell leftover illustrations as stock art. Since then it has grown to an industry leader in boutique tools and resources for the graphic designer. The Arsenal sells stock vectors, mockup templates, tutorials, ebooks, textures, fonts, and other items to help designers in their creative process.

Coffee & Code is a passionate, experienced, well-connected digital consultancy and development studio. We’ve helped startups succeed, built solutions for major players in the digital print industry, created a web presence for new companies, and supported existing teams to get better results, faster.

As supporters of our local tech community, we run / speak at meetups, volunteer at events, and sponsor what we want to see more of in the world.

Excellence in Action: Since 1910

Kent State University’s campus system, among the largest regional systems in the country, serves both the development of a true living/learning approach at the Kent Campus and regionally on Kent State campuses throughout Northeast Ohio.

Today, Kent State University has become an engine for economic, cultural and workforce development locally and internationally as one of the premiere Ohio universities.

Domestica’s an online + brick-and-mortar shop created around the goal of promoting the quality and value of modern handmade/cottage industry craftsmanship; planting the seed of great design that’s kind to the environment, kind to the artist and kind to your pocketbook.

Quality Screen Printing That Crushes the Competition! We pride ourselves on large, colorful, high- quality, super-soft apparel prints and retail ready add ons. Offering as many items and services as we can, we push to be the one stop shop that can support the demands of small upstarts all the way to international brands and corporations.

VGKids is the official shirt sponsor of WMC Fest. We make stunning shirts, hoodies, totes, vinyl stickers, concert posters, postcards, business cards, music packaging, and more. We’ve worked with everyone from IBM to Coca-Cola to Mercedes. Mega corps are fine but the people we really love are indie designers and DIYers, self-publishers and hackers, malcontents and visionaries. Like you, we believe a better world is possible and we’re working hard

Full Color offset printing is the cornerstone of our business. We print nearly ten million postcards and flyers per week! Our corporate office is located in Cleveland, Ohio and we have multiple locations nationwide. Our company goal is simple: We strive to offer the lowest cost full color printing at the highest possible quality.
