Biggerbrand and Camden are joining forces
Biggerband and Camden join forces. Starting today, the international digital agency Biggerband, founded in 2012 with a footprint in Paris and Montreal, will operate under the Camden banner from its Paris office.
The two agencies are teaming up to offer clients “enhanced expertise” in digital marketing, shopper marketing, branding, advertising, content strategy, design, media, external communications, employer branding and production.
Camden CEO Mathieu Bédard said the two operations share a vision and compatible values.
“We are thrilled to welcome prestigious clients like Dior, Nespresso, Jeff De Bruges and Columbus Café across two continents, but what motivates us even more is building Camden’s future with new world-class talents who represent the essence of our brand,” Bédard says.
Philippe Degoul, founder of Biggerband and director of its Montreal branch, will join Camden’s Quebec office in a global role as chief innovation officer.
This September, Camden appointed Marie-Michèle Jacques as the new president of all the agency’s offices in Canada, France and Asia. Earlier this spring, the shop supported creative for insurer RTOERO. Other brands the shop has worked with include CUPE, McGill University, Montana’s and Decathlon.
