Tech firm secures £3m deal with global industrial brand

Bloc Digital has announced it has signed a £3 million contract with a global industrial brand for its expertise.

The CG visualisation and digital solutions specialist has signed a three-year retainer agreement, which will see it provide its knowledge, skills and services.

The Derby firm said it has already been providing comprehensive creative, media and technology support for the client for a number of years.

According to the company, the new agreement will drive further collaboration between Bloc Digital and the global client, including across the UK, US, Asia and emerging markets.

Keith Cox, co-founder of Bloc Digital, said: “Bound by strict NDAs, we can’t disclose the name of the client, but I can say how proud we are to have an industry leader formally recognise the value of our unique and extensive mix of skills – investing in our creative, multi-media content and digital technology expertise.”

In recent years, Bloc has strengthened its portfolio across the client’s subsidiaries and worldwide locations, including concepting and creating brand collateral, AR (Augmented Reality) experiences, detailed 3D animations and interactive virtual platforms for product launches, exhibitions, and sales and marketing activity.

Chris Hotham, co-founder of Bloc Digital, said: “This contract also demonstrates how our commitment to delivering impactful, high-quality results while balancing costs is providing our clients with a real edge.

“It’s this combination of values, industrial expertise, and range of digital skills – something they described as being challenging to find within one company – that attracted this global brand to strengthening its relationship with us.”
