Mindset Сonsulting

Founder’s statement

I believe in the power of entrepreneurship, and I consider it essential to give life to creative ideas and solutions that change people’s lives.Since my student years, I’ve been on a mission to share with the world about the brightest and most courageous minds, those who invent products and services that drive progress and create transformation. My name is Dina Mostovaya. I’m the founder and CEO of Mindset Consulting, an international consulting firm where we help tech companies and venture funds to gain visibility and credibility so that they can do what they do best:  empowering the world’s bright minds to build a better future.

How Mindset Consulting was founded

This journey started a long time ago, when Dina Mostovaya was working at the city’s newspaper and local TV station in Western Siberia. That later brought her to an internship in a global performance marketing agency in London, the Metia Group.
For the next 10 years, Dina honed her PR skills by pitching client stories to reporters, developing brand communication strategies, handling reputation crises, and leading the implementation of global cross-cultural projects. This gave her the opportunity to work with major brands like Microsoft, eBay, Gett, Target Global, and more.

In 2020, after putting together her experience and wide network, Dina launched a company that seamlessly merged all she loved about working in the agency world. The name she chose–Mindset Consulting–was based on the philosophy, “The way we think, the way we live.”

We have always believed that businesses built upon clearly defined principles achieve better and more stable profit and growth. We all have shared and spread the same vision and values that helped Mindset Consulting to go forward.

One of the specialists joining the team at the very beginning was Natalia Edde, who became the international team lead and then the agency business partner. Before Mindset Consulting, she built up her PR and marketing skills by working with the world's biggest FMCG and retail companies for over 15 years.
I believe in the power of storytelling.

As a marketer, I have always been captivated by the art of creating products and engaging with audiences through compelling stories. After I launched several international FMCG brands, I realized how technologies are changing our world and how we can make this transition even more effective with the right communications. My burning passion for storytelling and the tech world led me to Mindset Consulting, where we have worked with bold entrepreneurs, revolutionizing the way we communicate and transforming life as we know it.

The Tipping Point: Scaling to a new level

Mindset Consulting was growing steadily, working with world-changing companies across the globe, when, at the beginning of 2022, Russia’s Ukrainian invasion happened. Since the agency has always been a multicultural firm with an international presence, her dedication to the company’s mission of supporting global entrepreneurship immediately forced Dina to relocate Mindset Consulting. With Natalia as a new partner, she launched an office in Spain, retaining the team and over 80% of the clients.

This led the firm to a new level.

Since then, we have expanded into new markets such as Germany and France, and our portfolio has added British, French, German, Spanish, Swiss and Estonian startups and VC funds. Through regular publications in top-tier media and other PR efforts, we have helped our clients secure multimillion-dollar investments and commercial deals, increase brand awareness by over 25%, and organize successful product launches.

We also have been growing internally, developing new recruitment and onboarding programs and implementing employee coaching practices. Today, our multicultural team of high-level media relations and PR experts comes from major global cities like New York, San Diego, London, Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia and Tel Aviv. We all have diverse professional and personal backgrounds that allow us to guarantee stellar outcomes for our clients in American, European and other markets.

As a result, just a year since the agency’s official launch in Europe, Mindset Consulting was named the Agency of the Year at the esteemed 15th Annual 2023 Golden Bridge Business and Innovation Awards. For our team, it became the first global award, and we have been deeply honored to be recognized as the gold winner of the nomination.

Our future

We are just at the beginning of Mindset Consulting’s great story. We set ambitious goals. One of them is to be one of the top 10 European communications agencies. We are going to continue expanding our global presence overseas, hiring more international talents and contributing into the cosmopolitan development of the tech market.We’re excited to have you on this journey with us, and to stay in touch with everything that is going on at Mindset Consulting, we encourage you to  sign up for our quarterly newsletter.
