D4 Creative Group, a full-service “tra-digital” advertising agency based in the Manayunk section of Philadelphia, is proud to announce three new clients:
Having just completed a league-leading season, D4 launched the new and improved Soul. Angel Fischer, Account Director at D4 commented, “Through the “We Got This” multi-layered campaign including TV, print, radio, outdoor, digital and non-traditional media, we brought the Soul experience to life.”
“The Soul likes to live outside of the box, and the staff at D4 fits our style perfectly,” said John Adams, Chief Operating Officer of the Soul. “With their vast experience and off-the-charts creative ability, they think big and execute flawlessly.”
A fast-growing law firm turned to D4 one year after they opened their doors. According to Bob Seabert, Creative Director at D4, the biggest challenge was creating innovative branding strategies among the plethora of law firm advertisements. D4 created the “Unmistakable” branding campaign which is being executed this summer.
“We were looking for an agency that could bring our brand to life with not only creative visuals, but a strategy to enable our Firm to stand out in an oversaturated marketplace,” said Samuel Pond, Workers’ Compensation Attorney.
A healthcare management company who was in need of a new brand identity. “They asked us to come up with something unique; a brand identity that points to Medecision’s leadership role in healthcare management,” offered Kurt Shore, President and Chief Creative Officer of D4. “We did so by utilizing unique colors, symbolism, artwork, and language.”
Sherri Stuart, Vice President of Marketing for Medecision commented, “D4 brought us the kind of totally innovative thinking and creativity Medecision needed. We now stand out in a sea of sameness.”

CERN, Google Drive Future of Global Science Initiatives
Large-scale, worldwide scientific initiatives rely on some cloud-based system to both coordinate efforts and manage computational efforts at peak times that cannot be contained within the combined in-house HPC resources. Last week at Google I/O, Brookhaven National Lab’s Sergey Panitkin discussed the role of the Google Compute Engine in providing computational support to ATLAS, a detector of high-energy particles at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
