I'm Jonathan Chapuis, a Swiss-Kenyan creative entrepreneur based in Nairobi, where I run Bidii Creatives, a content marketing agency I founded in 2020. My work sits at the intersection of strategy and execution: I help NGOs, brands, and institutions tell their stories through video, photography, and digital campaigns. What sets me apart is that I'm not just the strategist, I'm also behind the camera, in the editing suite, and deep in the analytics. Before launching Bidii, I spent nearly a decade in Switzerland's finance and insurance sector, where I built teams, trained advisors, and learned that great results come from combining sharp strategy with genuine human connection. Outside of work, I'm a musician. I write, compose, and produce my own tracks in my home studio. I've also acted in TV series and films, which taught me a lot about storytelling from the other side of the lens. Whether I'm crafting a brand campaign, flying a drone for an aerial shot, or exploring ideas around leadership and psychology, I'm driven by the same thing: creating work that connects with people and actually moves the needle.
