August is an award-winning design and technology company with full-time staff across Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom. Yet we work at a local level, with a local heart.
A team of digital specialists and practitioners, we are values-driven. We don’t write them in a document to file them away; we live them, every day. This can be seen in our tenure as a Certified B Corporation; a membership that aligns with our approach and acknowledges the work we do with government, institutional not-for-profits and non-government organisations throughout the world.
While proudly independent, we are an active member of the Society for Digital Agencies (SoDA). SoDA is a global, invite-only organisation made up of leading creative and digital agencies worldwide. Our membership allows us to benchmark and set best-in-breed global standards for staff, clients, and operations.
We deliver meaningful digital change, for government, business and for cause, by creating and executing accessible, evidence-based strategies and technology solutions spanning digital design, product development, and brand communication.
