The company: The art of blending media, technology, and strategic marketing.

Like most peculiar humble beginnings that turned into billions-cost companies, this one started in a dreamer’s garage where startups were probably not even a word yet. We are talking about the 90s, servicing one client which became the foundation of a life-long rapid expansion from London to 8 countries overall and now slowly TAKING OVER Singapore.

With laser focus in providing marketing solutions to tech companies, this global media agency combines the unique bricks to a stonewall of reliable heavily data-driven, results and performance-oriented marketing.

You can have access to the people who founded the company 20 years ago at your finger-tips. You learn new things everyday and are surrounded by people who are talented and very driven.

There are very high standards for the work being done and making the agency a better place. Hours can be demanding like most agencies. They attack daily with the right process and satisfying outcome, yet they are never complacent with their results. They just keep evolving around their strength.
