Amsterdam, Netherlands – Global digital agency DEPT is continuing its Asia-Pacific expansion with the acquisition of Australian digital product studio Two Bulls. The Melbourne-based agency marks DEPT’s expansion in Australia and the wider APAC region, and will bolster its global digital product services offerings.
Founded in 2009, Two Bulls works across multiple industries, with particular experience in health, family and public sector. Its team of over 120 creative engineers have pioneered the Australian digital products market on a mission to solve complex and meaningful problems in simple ways. Some of their clients include Verizon, Hasbro and MailChimp.
Through the acquisition, Two Bulls will continue to operate under the leadership of James Kane, founder and CEO; and Evan Davey, founding partner.
Vishnu Mohan, partner and chief growth officer at DEPT, said, “Asia-Pacific is an important part of our vision of being the best global digital agency in the world. We are working hard to bring the full DEPT® value proposition to life in the region, and joining forces with such a talented, pioneering team like Two Bulls will be hugely beneficial to our clients.”
Meanwhile, Dimi Albers, CEO and DEPT, commented, “We’ve admired Two Bulls from afar for a while now; they really are Australia’s go-to studio for digital product strategy and design. They know how to effectively combine technology and marketing, have long standing relations with their clients and, most importantly, don’t forget to have a lot of fun along the way. I’m sure that their entrepreneurial spirit will help drive DEPT® forward in Australia, the wider APAC region and beyond.”
