Strategic-creative consultancy frog design announced plans to enhance its presence in Europe with the opening of a new studio in Amsterdam in September. Executive Creative Director Europe Cees van Dok will head up the new studio while continuing to oversee the Digital Media Design, Product Design and Technology teams in frog's additional European locations in Stuttgart and Milan.
"Amsterdam is one of the most innovative cities in Europe and offers an extremely diverse and vibrant business hub, which is exactly the kind of fabric that frog thrives in," said Doreen Lorenzo, President of frog design. "This is a tremendous opportunity for us to continue our global growth and extend our reach into new regional markets and industries in Europe."
"frog's unique approach to working with clients to develop convergent design solutions requires unique talent. Amsterdam is an influential design capital and home to internationally renowned design and engineering schools, which are key to recruiting the most talented digital media and product designers, technologists, and strategists," said Cees van Dok, Executive Creative Director Europe.
frog has had significant growth in Europe, adding 16 new employees from across four different disciplines since January 2008. With more than 400 employees worldwide, frog currently has eight studios in the US, Europe, and in Asia. The company recently opened new headquarters in San Francisco, celebrated the first year anniversary of its launch in Shanghai, and will mark the 40th anniversary of its founding in January 2009.
