Award winning agency launches new branding & website
TORONTO AND VANCOUVER, May 20, 2014 /CNW/ - Inventa announced today that they have hired Daryn Sutherland as the new Vice President of Account Services, effective April 14th, 2014. Daryn joins Ren Olivieri, Vice President Strategy / Creative Director, as the latest senior leader in a series of strategic hires at the award winning agency.
In addition to the new members of the leadership team, it was announced that Inventa has refreshed its brand to better align with both the range of services that the company offers today, and the direction of the agency. The company has updated their collateral materials and launched a new user-friendly website at www.inventaworld.com . These updates come at a time of steady and significant growth for the company as new associates have been added at both the head office in Toronto, and the affiliate office in Vancouver.
"These changes to our team and brand mark a pivotal point in the journey that we embarked upon eighteen years ago," said Brent Nichols, Co-Founder of Inventa. "We began by putting products in people's hands, creating an immersive brand experience. In today's world, the dynamics are changing fast, so we have been quietly re-engineering our company and our service offering in order to provide our clients with the best possible business solutions. The new brand aligns the company we have always been, with the one we have become. It respects our heritage as the innovator and thought leader in the industry, while celebrating our evolution to a more integrated creative agency."
About the new VP Account Service
New to Inventa, but definitely not new to the agency world, Daryn has joined Inventa after career building stints at Cundari, Taxi, Bensimon-Byrne and Y&R.
Daryn has a diverse background that includes automotive, consumer packaged goods, association branding, and not-for-profit awareness. With extensive brand, CRM, retail and digital experience, Daryn has demonstrated her ability to craft the right consumer approach to drive the desired business results.
A strong leader and team player, Daryn has built a track record of bringing the best out of her team and fostering a collaborative relationship with her clients.
"I'm thrilled to be at an agency that is able to deliver 360 degree solutions", commented Daryn Sutherland. "Inventa's track record with experiential marketing speaks for itself. Now, as we put the right team in place, we've been able to deliver a wider range of skills to complement our heritage."
Ren Olivieri's creative career includes successful stints at Cossette, MacLaren McCann and The Hive. His work for Reebok, Corona, Jack Daniels, XBOX and Bell garnered numerous industry awards and he has made an immediate impact on Inventa's client base including Nintendo, Kraft and Coca Cola.
"Our business is not just experiential anymore; clients are demanding a more integrated approach to creative, one that works across multiple mediums. Inventa has evolved to meet those needs and we are truly an ideas first, people centric agency that will live up to its philosophy - to create media agnostic experiences that are designed to be sharable and engage people." said Olivieri.
The brand and website were designed internally by the creative agency led by Olivieri and Associate Creative Director, Rob Ciancamerla.
