We build connections in the cultural sector across Communications, marketing, branding and partnerships

We work at the intersection of music, dance, and the wider cultural sector to deliver meaningful projects across borders, disciplines and communities.

Diagonal is a consultancy brand created by Inês Carvalho and Bernardo Queiros, two cultural experts coming together to support artists and organisations.

What We Do

Communications

Our communications are rooted in storytelling and connection – bridging artists, organisations, and ideas with the platforms and people that matter. From leading and executing on your strategic goals to PR and editorial placements, we shape narratives that will raise your profile.

Marketing

We craft tailored and goal-led campaigns that combine powerful visuals and compelling messaging to grow your audience. Our work spans digital and print, social media, content creation, email and audience engagement strategies.

Branding

We bring clarity about who you are and how you want to be seen. Whether launching something new or evolving an existing presence, we shape identities from visuals to brand voice, messaging, and positioning.

Partnerships

We seek impactful partners through close collaboration. Tapping into over a decade of building a global network, we expand your project’s opportunities through cultural collaborations.

Bernardo at Diagonal has been instrumental in building and developing Rambert Plus into the fantastic fanbase community product that it is today, but also looking after our CRM and Digital provision alongside the rest of the team. He has been such an integral part of my team, bringing expertise and vibes in equal measures.
