Global experience agency Huge has today announced the elevation of key leaders across its global network, further strengthening its user-centric design, production, data, technology and capabilities as it looks to drive continued growth and transformation for its clients moving into 2021 and beyond.

And, Peter Van Djick has been named president of Huge Colombia.

“We’ve been amazed by the incredible double-digit growth Huge has seen over the last six months,” said Raj Singhal, Huge COO / CFO and acting CEO. “It’s due in no small part to the guidance and wisdom these individuals have demonstrated in navigating and creating a new landscape for our business and helping our clients meet new challenges.”

As Huge enters 2021 with significant growth momentum surrounding long established accounts like Google, P&G and Stellantis, and looks at momentum created by new account wins, such as Coppertone, Wakefern and Nikko Asset Management.
