Siniša Waldinger said: “Davor, Nikola and I have worked together way in 1995 on a small scale project for Pepsi, so in a way I’m returning to the beginnings again. During the past ten years I was a regular guest in B&Ž, PlayStationing with Nikola once a week, and we still intend to play everyday by working together. I’m happy we joined forces again after all these years and I believe I will contribute to B&Ž, the best international small agency according to the AdAge, becoming even better and that we open up new fronts in exporting Croatian creativity to Europe and the world.”

Davor Bruketa said: “We want to gather the best experts from the entire region so that we can be competitive on the foreign markets where we operate currently or will be operating in the future.”
