Deasign was founded in Sweden in 1999 by Axel Bendrik and Erik Göransson. From the beginning, key words of the agency have been combining strategy and business understanding with creation, communications knowledge and technical expertise. We take on an advisory role when it comes to the entire digital presence of our clients.
We believe that in just a few years companies will view digital media as a top priority; some already do. The people responsible for this will be part of a web council that will consist of specialists from all departments, such as customer service, business development, sales, information, communication, marketing and IT. Deasign’s vision is to always be ready, and to develop our company according to the demands and expectations of both the market and our clients. Currently these demands include taking on the role as “specialist generalists”. That means that we need to have an understanding of the entire digital field and also be able to focus on details when needed along with our partners and subcontractors. Today, knowledge about social media, mobile applications and SEO are especially hot – tomorrow it might be something different. We commit ourselves to following these developments in order to offer the best solutions for our clients.
Deasign has been growing organically at the same pace as our clients. Today, we employ 75 people at our offices in Stockholm, Helsinki and St Petersburg. Deasign also has a sister agency – a technical production company – called Fröjd. The Deasign Group had a turnover of SEK 40 million in 2009/2008. In late 2010 we opened our open our office in St Petersburg, Russia.
Our company has triple-A, the highest credit rating in the Soliditet evaluation system, which is based on approximately 2,400 decision parameters. This information is completely up to date and is refreshed daily via the Soliditet database.
We help some of the largest companies and organisations in the Nordic countries with their digital presence. Examples of these include the mobile phone operator 3, the consumer goods company Unilever and the Finnish technology innovation company Nokia. On the Russian market we work with Stockmann Nevsky Centre, Arla and Planeta Fitness. Take a look at our client list for more information.
We develop the digital presence of our clients. This includes web sites, intranet, extranet, campaigns, buying flows, banners, activities in social media and mobile applications. At the moment, the primary focus of our business lies on managing web site projects, concepts, ideas, structure and design with a high user experience and usefulness. The technical development of web projects is realized through technical subcontractors. Read more in our cases or under the section what we do.
