PAWTUCKET – The Hope Artiste Village will be getting a new tenant this month as Shazamm Global Interactive Agency relocates from its Providence headquarters. The variety of tenants at the mixed-use mill rehab will positively influence the agency’s designers, programmers and business development team, company officials said.
Shazaam, a specialist in software development, Web and multimedia design, serves clients including AOL, Time Inc., Touchstone Pictures, Hasbro Inc. and the Pawtucket Red Sox. The firm was acquired last month by Atrion Networking Corp., a Warwick-based technology provider. (READ MORE)
The new digs will be “a step forward” for the marketing and communications firm, Atrion CEO Tim Hebert said in a statement. “What better way to do that then with a relocation – and a breath of Hope Village’s creative air to inspire our imaginations and to better serve our clients?”
“Tim and I agreed – the first time we saw it – that Hope Artiste Village felt like home,” added Shazamm CEO Dana Paul. “Obviously, that’s great for us from a work environment perspective, but I know our new space will also benefit our work and, by extension, our clients as well.”
The agency expects to complete its move by late June.
