Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • 2026 Tinder Canada work shows Thinkingbox still wins culturally relevant consumer campaigns.
  • Corey Hankey's 2024 COO role should tighten operations and client retention.
  • Alex Panousis as chief growth officer strengthens new-business capture across North America.

What critics are saying

  • Creative services face commoditization as clients shift spend to in-house teams.
  • Dependency on marquee accounts like Adobe and Riot Games creates renewal concentration risk.
  • If growth stalls, Thinkingbox's acquired-office model becomes an integration drag across markets.

What makes Thinkingbox unique

  • Thinkingbox spans six offices and combines production, strategy, and technology.
  • Corey Hankey became COO in 2024, signaling disciplined multi-office delivery.
  • Its roster includes Adobe, Chobani, Intuit, Riot Games, and Magic: The Gathering.
