We're pleased to say we have been listed as the top digital agency in the North East and Yorkshire by creative industry title, The Drum.

The Top 100 league ranks the best marketing agencies based outside London, covering all of the core offerings, from digital and PR, to design and advertising agencies - an invaluable report for companies looking to form a pitch list or appoint a reputable agency.

This year, agencies have been rated using a new model developed by Price Waterhouse, which takes into account business efficiency as opposed to using turnover alone as the deciding factor.

Contenders also had to win a place on the Recommended Agency Register in order to be invited to take part in this latest study, which came down to the views of 2,000 clients across the UK who were all asked to score their current marketing services providers in terms of professionalism, value for money and quality.

From 250 Recommended Agencies invited to participate, the selection process determined that only the 100 most efficient agencies made it to the final published ranking.

This latest accolade marks the second consecutive year we’ve been appointed the top spot as the North East’s leading digital agency after scooping The Drum’s North East Digital Agency of the Year Award in its 2007 New Year honours list.

Both are testament to TH_NK’s continued rapid growth during the last two years which has seen us increase our team to 60, double our  turnover to over £3 million and begin to expand into London with high-profile clients including Grainger plc, Northumbrian Water, NHS and global market research giant TNS Global among our wins.

This success was also recognised in Deloitte’s recent technology rankings with TH_NK claiming the 4th spot in the Fast 50 league and being awarded first place in the media and entertainment category in the coveted Fastest 500 EMEA awards.
