About

Vertical52 is a company initiated by Marcus Pfeil and Michael Anthony. Founded in 2022 in Berlin - on the 52nd degree of latitude.

Marcus has specialized in complex storytelling projects since 2012, after a brief stint with the German financial industry regulator Bafin. He and his teams have produced numerous award-winning stories: He tracked e-waste that was smuggled into West Africa. Or a missing painting that saved the life of a Jewish family in 1938. He builds his stories with the help of innovative technologies such as GPS transmitters or sensors, with which he made about three dairy cows talk. He has been investigating earth from space since 2022.

Michael is a social intrapreneur and entrepreneur who has worked as a journalist in his early career, setting up journalists.network, the institute for foreign affairs journalism. Later he drove the sustainability and climate change agendas at Allianz and introduced satellite technology to crop insurance. While living in Mumbai, he set up Earth Analytics India. With Vertical52, Michael wants to visualise environmental data.
