hasan & partners has opened its Stockholm shop today – the first international office for the fast-growing Helsinki-based marketing communications agency, which recently acquired Perfect Fools, the international creative digital studio.
Its four founding partners – Camilla Hahn Fortkord, managing director; creative directors Peter Laurelli, Jakob Swedenborg and Daniel Wall – have vast experience earned from some of the world’s leading agencies, including: 180, Farfar, Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, McCann and Wieden+Kennedy.
Ami Hasan, founder and chairman of hasan & partners, says: "Following our acquisition of Perfect Fools last month, I am proud to announce the opening of hasan & partners Stockholm. We have fantastic founding partners who will immediately work with several clients that will benefit from a locally-based, fully-integrated agency with a global reach.”
Camilla Hahn Fortkord, managing director of hasan & partners Stockholm, says: "hasan & partners has a reputation in Sweden and beyond for great work for clients including IKEA and H&M. This is due to a perfect formula that combines creativity, insights, unorthodox thinking, technology and sisu – a Finnish word meaning determination, bravery and resilience."
Eka Ruola, CEO of hasan & partners, adds: "Led by Camilla, the founding partners are a dynamic team with a proven track record. Our new creatives have an incredible pedigree and are a fantastic addition to the team."
