October 27, 201113 yr As much as it pains me to say, it makes sense for DigiKnow's 17 employees to join MT's 120, rather than the other way around which would have been like the minnow swallowing the whale. But maybe DigiKnow's employees will be ambassadors for downtown and urge the combined company to move to where the region's creative minds are moving.... INTO THE CITY! Marcus Thomas to acquire DigiKnow digital marketing firm By CHUCK SODER 3:28 pm, October 27, 2011 Marketing firm Marcus Thomas LLC of Warrensville Heights has struck a deal to acquire DigiKnow LLC, a Cleveland-based digital marketing company.

October 27, 201113 yr DigiKnow was down to 17 local employees? Yikes. 17 employees in the space they had at Tyler is certainly not sustainable. It was ~30-35 when they moved from Beachwood into the far bigger Tyler space.
October 28, 201113 yr digiknow acquired and being taken to warrensville heights. :( Suck. That DigiKnow space in Tyler Village is pretty sweet. Hopefully another cool company takes it over. But Warrensville Heights? C'mon Marcus Thomas... All the best marketing agencies are downtown (*cough* http://www.rosetta.com *cough*)

June 17, 201212 yr Nice cinder block motif. It looks a lot like the AES aka bf goodrich complex in downtown akron.
February 14, 201312 yr It's been awhile since we've heard any news at Tyler Village, but here's some progress! design firm relocates offices from burbs to st. clair superior's tyler village "Rene Polin founded his design consulting firm, Balance Inc., in Chagrin Falls. Yet as he grew, he felt cut off from creative opportunities in Cleveland. In October, he moved his eight-person, nine-year-old firm to 5,500 square feet of open, custom-built office space in the Tyler Village complex in St. Clair Superior." http://freshwatercleveland.com/devnews/balanceinc021413.aspx
