true’s Fantastic Four: The BIMA 100 has spoken

We’re not ones to shout for the sake of it but this one deserves a little noise. The BIMA 100 has landed, and true has got four names on it. Four of our own have been recognised among the best and brightest in UK digital.

What’s the BIMA 100?

Think of it as the digital industry’s hall of fame. Every year, BIMA (British Interactive Media Association) highlights 100 individuals who are pushing boundaries and generally making digital a more exciting, impactful place to be. It’s not just about shiny job titles or big brands. BIMA 100 celebrates people who do - the ones who roll up their sleeves and move the industry forward.
