Think Digitally’s Journey
Think Digitally is the resulting fusion of two great companies, Nieku Ltd and Garnay Ltd. Heads of both organisations, Max Saunders and Rob Garnett, discovered they shared a relentless passion for creating a great user experience.
Their vision is to ensure technology in any form has a positive impact on people’s everyday life, promoting the development of solutions that are easy to use, painless and user centric – adding value at every opportunity.
With the line between websites and software becoming more and more blurred, Think Digitally was born, bringing together a successful web studio and software development house, with teams joining forces to become one family, our Collective.
The journey so far...

As momentum increased, both companies began shifting their focus to medium to large business, specifically B2B. This allowed us to work with brands such as NHS, Ogilvy & LexisNexis. Garnay founded their Software Blueprint process.

2013
Due to a shift in the economy, the Collective was formed as a reaction to demand for a handpicked team of specialists per job. Larger companies wanted to know exactly who would be involved in their project and were no longer averse to companies running a lean model.

The directors of both companies were introduced. It was clear immediately that we shared a passion for user experience, thinking ahead and customer satisfaction. After a coffee & croissant we ended up in an all-day visionary workshop, with the exciting prospect of working together hinted.
