Company mission
To transform today's challengers into the market leaders of tomorrow.
Our take
Glaswegian digital consulting firm Equator works with companies across a wide array of industries, including healthcare, B2B, private equity, wealth management and travel. It aims to elevate challenger businesses into future market leaders by accelerating business performance and audience engagement.
Focusing on companies with aspirations for high growth, Equator has been operating for 25 years, paying close attention to digital innovations to keep its clients ahead of the curve, all whilst maintaining a customer-centric focus. It works at all stages of a customer’s digital transformation pipeline, and its longevity as a consultancy firm attests to its customer satisfaction.
In 2016, Equator bought the brand agency 999 Design, the portfolio of which was absorbed by Equator. Clients taken by Equator included the Financial Times and Highland Spring and contributed to its long-term growth strategy. Now Equator has offices in Glasgow and London and continues to expand its portfolio with confidence.
