The Woodinville, WA-based firm had a number of highlights in a year where it recorded a 22.4% increase, including new client wins and greater penetration into existing accounts, plus the June 2022 acquisition of distributorship Idea Planet, a company that caters to the video game industry along with other high-profile clients. And just last month, the company acquired Germany’s ipm | gruppe, broadening the firm’s presence in Europe and giving it offices in three European countries.
In December, BDA was honored in the Best Place to Work category by the independent Best in Biz Awards, and in November its U.K. offices achieved a Platinum score from sustainability monitoring company EcoVadis. CEO Jay Deutsch adds: “BDA’s success will always be attributed to our amazing people around the globe and a winning culture that aligns both our growth mindset and core values.”
