About the Company

Company Mission

To close the world's digital skills gap.

About AND Digital

AND Digital is a tech company focused on accelerating digital delivery and dedicated to closing the digital skills gap. We've been helping organisations build better digital products and stronger digital teams since 2014.

We believe our work should always make a remarkable impact for our clients. We do this through our regional offices (or 'Clubs') building strong relationships with our partners, so that they are always prioritised by a team within close proximity.

This unique model has driven success for our clients and ourselves, evidenced by our remarkable organic growth since 2014. Today we number more than 1,300 people with Clubs all over the UK, Europe and the USA with plans for global expansion in the next couple of years.

Company Approach

Rather than simply delivering digital solutions, AND Digital focuses on helping businesses understand how to work digitally, so they can continue to grow and adapt long after a project is finished. The company works alongside their clients instead of working for them, combining their own people with client teams into one collaborative unit to identify challenges, build digital products, and share skills throughout the process, so clients can take full ownership of their apps, websites, and future digital work.
