Today, we’re so happy to finally, formally announce that we’ve opened an office in New York City! Our new east coast home is right in the middle of all the action, between Union Square and Madison Square Park in Manhattan. Not only was this a crucial expansion for our business and service to clients, but it’s also a way to diversify our office culture and exposure to new, fresh ideas that are happening in the Big Apple.

Along with just having a presence here, we are hitting the ground running to actively be a part of the community by participating in one of New York Social Media Week’s coolest events, hosted by Luminary Labs, a boutique consultancy focused on strategy and innovation.
