As well as ranking alongside the UK’s most successful digital agencies in the NMA’s Top 100 league table, we've also been voted the top digital agency in The Drum’s New Year’s Honours list. Which we’re sure you’ll agree, is a pretty great start to 2009.

Despite the challenging economic climate in 2008, TH_NK continued to expand – opening a new London office, appointing MT Rainey as chairman, and attracting 32 new members of staff. Now with over 70 talented people and a turnover of £3.7m, we’re proud to bang our drum about being awarded the top digital agency in the North East in the New Year’s Honours list.

This news follows an impressive stream of awards and accolades which we have achieved over the last few months. As well as ranking highly in the NMA’s top 100 Interactive Agencies league table, we also gained the world’s most established quality framework, ISO 9001, and were awarded Microsoft Gold Partner status – that’s the highest level attainable in the Microsoft Partner Programme.

We’re delighted to be voted the top digital agency in The Drum’s New Year’s Honours list. As we continue with our national expansion, we are being given even more opportunities to deliver great work and are looking forward to seeing how this will help us achieve even more success, growth and innovation throughout 2009.
