Despite the pressures of the pandemic and a volatile employment market, the award-winning, fully-integrated creative agency avoided any furloughs or lay-offs and has significantly increased headcount and offerings for clients, cementing themselves as the all-service destination for entertainment marketing needs, including strategy, A/V, digital and social media, web development, production, 3D, visual identity, print design, branding, motion graphics and more. BOND has expanded its teams with an increased focus on gaming, streaming, and insight and audience sentiment, all significant areas of growth for the company.

"This is such a special moment for all of us here at BOND, thriving on so many levels in the wake of such a uniquely challenging past two years.
