FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, UNITED STATES, October 21, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Los Angeles-based Believe Limited, a leading media and event production company specializing in impactful storytelling for those with rare, complex, and chronic conditions, has merged with BrandStar, a solutions-driven, fully horizontally and vertically integrated production and strategic marketing company. The merger broadens BrandStar’s footprint in the healthcare sector, following its recent merger with Meraki Social.

Founded in 2013 by Patrick James Lynch and Ryan Gielen, who were inspired by their early work in summer camps for children with serious conditions, Believe Limited has garnered global recognition for its impactful work in rare disease communities.

Patrick James Lynch, co-founder of Believe Limited, added, “We are thrilled to be joining forces with BrandStar.
