And Liam Duncan joins as games developer from Clicks and Links, where he was lead developer working on a range of serious games for business applications.

Corporation Pop, based in Manchester’s Northern Quarter, has enjoyed 20% year-on-year growth for the last three years and for the period 2015/16 turnover is anticipated to be 22% up on the previous year, its best ever.

Specialising in serious games, advergames, web applications and 3D virtual environments, the agency has moved away from project-based work to a retained business model, which now accounts for around a third of its work.

It recently achieved the Cyber Essentials accreditation, helping it to win a place on the government’s ‘Digital Outcomes’ Framework Agreement, and is currently working on mobile apps for the government-funded Cyber Security Challenge, as well as projects for the BBC, 1418NOW and the British Council.

MD Dom Raban said: “2016 has been the best year in the company’s history. This is down to our continued commitment to remain ahead of the curve, investment in our people and re-focus on retained business.

“All our new hires will consolidate our position as one of the North’s leading interactive agencies.”
