Planting the flag
In an initiative lead by Mike Germano of Carrot Creative, Brian Lemond of Brooklyn Digital Foundry, and Ty Ahmad-Taylor of FanFeedr the DUMBO area in Brooklyn, New York is staking its claim as the New York Digital District. Over 80 digital agencies — many competing on a professional level — have vested their interest and unified to establish the New York Digital District (NYDD) to promote this dynamic area’s ability to satisfy a vast array of technology and web-based needs for brands and companies.
Igniting the beacon
The beacon of the NYDD will attract talent, clients, and recognition of the area’s present accomplishment and future potential. This emerging business sector will benefit from an organized body of professionals dedicated to advocacy and charged with identifying the NYDD as the place to look to for new media marketing and web design needs.
Leading the way
The most important, innovative, and influential new media agencies are located in the NYDD, with more moving in all the time. The NYDD will leverage the creativity, tenacity, and insight of the community’s leaders to become the epicenter of New York's digital future.
