DNA, a US-based ICOM network member agency renowned for its 'Different Wins' philosophy, has merged with Little Hands of Stone, a creatively driven boutique agency. The result is DNA&STONE, a new agency that combines complementary strengths to deliver high-value solutions for clients.
“This isn’t about cutting costs or gaining market share,” said Alan Brown, Founder and Chair of DNA. “It’s about putting our clients first—bringing together the best of our respective approaches to create meaningful results.”
Michael Boychuk, Co-Founder of Little Hands of Stone, added: “Our differences are our strength. Together, we can provide the trust of a legacy agency paired with the agility and creativity of a boutique agency.”
The merger unites 40 employees under one roof and introduces a leadership team of four Founders: Alan Brown, Chris Witherspoon, Michael Boychuk, and Matt McCain. Their combined client portfolio includes BECU, Rover, Amazon, Purina, Providence, Ziply Fiber, Aegis, MCU and more.
Emma Keenan, President and CEO of ICOM, emphasized the broader significance of this collaboration: “DNA&STONE exemplifies the spirit of the ICOM network—embracing diversity, combining strengths, and creating new opportunities. It’s a reminder that when independent agencies collaborate, they achieve more than the sum of their parts.”
Based in DNA’s Seattle office, DNA&STONE begins operations this month with a commitment to delivering innovative and effective work for clients.
