In 2010, Birmingham was due to become a leading digital city. I’ve no reason to assume that didn’t happen on schedule, although I’ve been flicking through The Drum’s list of Top 100 Digital Agencies (by fee income) and they don’t seem to have got the memo.

The Midlands (east and west) only have three agencies listed. Those are:

  • Freestyle in Warwick (59th)
  • Big Picture in Leamington Spa (92nd).
  • WAA, who are identified as Sutton Coldfield rather than Birmingham but we know the truth (90th)

The good news is we beat Wales (one agency listed) and the North East (also one agency, although their fee income easily outstrips the combined Midlands ones). Hurrah, I suppose.

Well done to 383 Project for their mention in the ones to watch for 2012 list.
