Degordian

Degordian is a digital-first agency that has operated in the marketing and technology sectors since its inception in 2009. Founded by Daniel Ackermann and Tomislav Grubišić, who were high-school friends and students at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing at the time, the company emerged from their shared interest in website development and the nascent field of social media marketing. Initially known as iSTUDIO, the firm capitalized on the growing demand from brands to establish a presence on social networks, leading to rapid early growth.

Headquartered in Zagreb, Croatia, the company has expanded its physical presence with offices in Belgrade, Mostar, and New York, enabling it to serve clients internationally. The firm's business model is structured around providing a comprehensive suite of digital services. Revenue is generated on a project or retainer basis by delivering solutions across its core verticals: marketing, technology, and HR. This structure evolved from a full-service agency into a collection of specialized, yet integrated, agencies to offer deeper expertise. These specialized units include performance marketing (Ahelon), 360 creative services (Boiler), development solutions (Builtt), and employer branding (Enstring).

The service portfolio is extensive, addressing a wide range of client needs from brand communication and digital production to performance marketing and employer branding. Specific offerings include search engine optimization (SEO), digital advertising, e-commerce development for platforms like Shopify and WooCommerce, public relations, influencer marketing, and video production. Degordian serves a diverse client base across various industries, with a notable growth in the IT sector. The company has been recognized multiple times as a top employer and was listed by Deloitte as one of the 50 fastest-growing tech companies in Central Europe.
