What We Do

AND Digital is on a mission to close the world’s digital skills gap. We do that by doing things differently when we work with our clients, communities and colleagues. Instead of working FOR exciting brands (like British Airways, Heineken and Nike), we work WITH them, and that's not just a party line. We combine our people with our clients' people to form a single project team, so collaborative you can't tell our ANDis from our clients. By working together, we help our partners understand and map out the challenges they're trying to solve. Then, by building their digital products as one team, we teach them the same digital skills we have. That means when we leave, they can own their apps, websites and future projects independently. Pretty cool huh?

We have cross-functional teams working across the UK, Netherlands and East Coast US - and growing by demand. Our unique, city-based Club model means we can offer the agility and personalised service of a small local company, with the security and clout of a global organisation
