About Us

Our Story

We are the challenger network for challenger brands.

On 24th January 2002, our four founders were united by their desire to challenge the bad habits of the industry. They were motivated by the belief that they could create a better type of agency – for the people who work there and the clients they serve. It’s a motivation that remains to this day. If we see something that’s wrong, we challenge it which is why we believe that we are the challenger network for challenger brands.
