Graphite Digital, a digital customer experience agency collaborating with healthcare and pharmaceutical organisations has won the University of Sussex Business School sponsored Creative Industries category at the Sussex Business Awards 2021. The Platinum Media Group event, hosted by comedian Zoe Lyons, took place on 2 December at the Grand Hotel, Brighton, with an audience of business talent from across Sussex.
Established for over thirty years, the Sussex Business Awards celebrate all-round excellence, as well as those businesses demonstrating special strengths in areas such as innovation, customer service and professional services. This year, the event also recognised companies that were forced to pivot their business in another direction to survive the impact of the pandemic.
On presenting the Creative Industries Award, Marcus Atkinson, Engagement Manager at the Business School said:
“In this exceptionally challenging time Graphite Digital has shown outstanding creative digital innovation to ensure that their healthcare and pharmaceutical clients can create products that reach their target audiences, through digital experiences that meet their needs.
“We received some great entries for this Award and choosing the winner out of the five finalists was a challenge. We also decided to award a Highly Commended to Buff Motion, for their excellence in making animation for brands, agencies and not-for-profits to achieve their marketing goals.”
Congratulations to fellow Creative Industry finalists Tiger Marketing, Anything is Possible and Rose Media Group.
