Hinderling Volkart founds Hinderling Volkart Bern

A new digital agency is being established at Waisenhausplatz 22, right in the center of Bern's old town. The company is led by Iwan Negro (Creative Director and Partner) and David Lüscher (Managing Director and Partner).

Negro has been part of Hinderling Volkart since its founding year and has played a key role in shaping the agency. Since 2015, the 35-year-old from Fribourg has been back in Bern, where he will now lead the new digital agency Hinderling Volkart Bern together with David Lüscher. Lüscher was previously a partner and consultant at the Bern-based agency Maison Standard. Before returning to Bern, he worked as a consultant at Jung von Matt in Zurich for four years. Lüscher also heads the Interactive Media Designer course at the School of Design in Bern and Biel. The team is completed by Patrick Lauterburg (design and frontend).

Hinderling Volkart was founded in 2007 by Michael Hinderling and Michael Volkart in Zurich and has enjoyed constant growth since then. Today, the agency has 32 employees and leads the ranking of Swiss digital agencies.

The agency in Bern starts with a small, interdisciplinary team. As in Zurich, the agency wants to focus on organic growth and continuously build up a team of specialists and young talents. In Bern, too, the core principles of continuity, quality and employee culture are to take center stage. Already in the founding phase, two exciting projects were won with Rivella and another local customer. Synergies with the Zurich site are to be actively exploited, and the teams in Zurich and Berne will be in close contact with each other. According to the press release, the location in Bern should not only create more proximity to existing Bernese customers, but also represent an exciting opportunity for new customers and talented employees from the Bern catchment area.
