Yes, you've heard by now that Farfar is dead. It's true, Isobar has shut down the Swedish creative hot shop in their network and given everyone their pink slips. Everyone that was left, that is. Matias Palm Jensen, the agencies founder was tight-lipped when he spoke to Dagens Media today ; But he did say ”Jag hade drivit det vidare” - I would have continued to run the agency rather than shut it down. And I would have had everyone who left with me onboard..
"Farfar is not built on me. The other people did not jump ship because I left, the agency is built on a strong collective vision about what we want to do. Isobar couldn't handle it. Simple as that."
Farfar is a good partner to us. With that said, Farfar is just one of many partners that we work with. Nokia is never dependent on a single supplier.
Sixteen people were told they lost their jobs today, as the agency quite suddenly had shrunk from the previous 40 people who used to work at Farfar but resigned earlier. Farfar is dead, long live Farfar.src="adland.tv/ass-quitting-farfar-stockholm-entire-nokia-team-leaves-agency">Everyone that was left, that is.
