‘The WREN design’ is range of bags inspired by the possibility of materials and their stories.
The brand started out of a want for a bag that had a story, was beautiful and was not mass-produced. The need was for a bag that was simple and practical. Wendren – the founder, could not find a bag that met both her want and need and so after a year or so of searching, ‘The WREN design‘ was born in 2008.
Issue reporting and managementbuilt exclusively for web designers.
THE COMPANY
We build software that we love, use and believe in. Our first product BugHerd aims to make a task that’s usually technical and time consuming, simple and hopefully even fun. The idea was first pitched by our founders Matt and Alan to the Australian startup incubator Startmate in 2011. After successful Startmate incubation they went on to attract investment from 500 Startups and an Australian startup award from Tech23. Since then we’ve been busily building, tweaking and learning what it takes to turn a solid vision into a remarkable product and working with some amazing companies along the way.
OUR MISSION
Develop bug tracking software so simple people will actually use it. Crazy huh?
OUR FOUNDERS
BugHerd was founded by Alan Downie and Matt Milosavljevic, two web developers who first joined forces to build UsabilityHub and FiveSecondTest. Now fully focused on BugHerd, here’s some insights into what makes them tick.
