Our take
Team ITG, which stands for “Inspired Thinking Group”, is a marketing agency with an enviable body of work, having worked with some of the world’s leading brands – Land Rover, Puma, Jaguar, and Heineken to name just a few.
Founded in 2009, the company has grown spectacularly and now has a global workforce across the US, UK, and Europe. While the company’s creative work and client services have fuelled this growth, its ‘CanopyCloud’ marketing SaaS platform has also proven key.
Team ITG was acquired by Eqistone in 2017 as part of a plan to accelerate its international expansion. Having been acquired once more in 2022—this time by Bridgepoint—another growth phase is seeing ITG acquire international data strategy and workflow automation companies and hire a new global managing partner to grow its global influence.
