\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\tToday, strategic design agency Sorthvid announced that they will fully integrate into one of Europe\u2019s leading digital agencies; DEPT\u00ae. Since March 2020, when Sorthvid became part of DEPT\u00ae, the teams have been working together for clients like GANNI, Magasin, Gant and Pandora.\t<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\tIn a world that stays at home, COVID-19 has pushed the fast-forward button on online consumer behaviour and sentiment. DEPT\u00ae looks at this as an opportunity for both Danish and international brands to build and accelerate their digital business. Rebranding Sorthvid is the next step in integration and pulls together the experience of the 50+ DEPT\u00ae digital marketing experts in Denmark with the design and technology power of the Sorthvid team. Combined, they are on track for 20% organic revenue growth in 2020, even amid the pandemic slowdown.\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\u201cBack in March, obviously, we thought; how do you start working together when our whole world is changing? But solving our clients\u2019 challenges is still our main priority, and it\u2019s great to see how easy it is to integrate our services \u2013 even while being physically separated. Therefore it feels like a logical next step to rebrand, both for our clients and the team,\u201d says Jonas Roland Therkildsen, Managing Director at Sorthvid.\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\tDuring the last six months, both teams showed that they are able to react fast. For example, they have helped the Danish fashion brand GANNI to launch a digital showroom in six weeks time, enabling them to present their newest collection to buyers since the Covid-19 lockdown made it impossible for them to host fashion shows and meetings. DEPT\u00ae and Sorthvid have also worked together across borders to design and launch a new website for Magasin.dk, creating a unique online shopping experience. But also on the digital marketing side of the business, with clients like\u00a0JYSK<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Steelseries<\/a>, both teams show that they were able to help navigate clients through the new normal.\t<\/p>\n\n\n\t\tDimi Albers, CEO Dept: \u201cIt is impressive to see how we\u2019ve helped so many Danish and international brands accelerate their digital business over the last few months. Combining creativity, technology and data in an integrated manner for our clients in Denmark is proving its effectiveness and impact. This next step makes it easier for clients to navigate our service portfolio, and makes us one of the leading agencies in the Danish market.\u201d\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\t
