Mumbai: A new digital agency, itch, has emerged with a clear vision to transform the advertising landscape. Founded by three industry veterans, itch aims to make ads feel less like ads, creating work that sparks curiosity and leaves a lasting impression.
Beyond creativity, itch is built on agility and the philosophy of bringing method to the madness. By refining processes and staying nimble, they ensure that their ideas not only sound great in the boardroom but come to life with real impact. The agency aims to tackle the growing need for more meaningful, innovative campaigns that prioritise substance over noise.
“Our goal with itch is not just to do different things but to do things differently, we're at a point where people are saturated with overt messaging, so we’re constantly asking ourselves, how can we deliver a message that doesn’t feel like one? It’s about crafting stories that people want to engage with where the creative work doesn’t scream ‘ad.’” said itch co-founder and creative director Naman.
“At itch, it’s as much about the people as it is about the brands. We're building an ecosystem that fosters bold ideas, nurtures talent, and challenges norms. Agility is key in today’s market, where brands seek more than just surface-level marketing, and hence quick adapting becomes essential,” itch’s co-founder Apoorva, who spearheads growth & talent, explained how the itch community operates.
“Running an agency is a delicate balance between structure and freedom. We wanted to bring a level of process that makes it easier for creativity to thrive, allowing our team to execute bold ideas efficiently and consistently. Our approach is all about making things work smarter, not harder,” on the operational front, co-founder and operations lead Surbhi emphasised.
By blending creativity and collaboration, itch aims to redefine the connection between talent and brands, leaving a lasting impact on the industry. The agency has already secured several key accounts and will announce these wins shortly. With a focus on strategic thinking, creativity, and refined processes, itch positions itself as a distinct player in the advertising world, promising to deliver work that is anything but ordinary.
