December 20, 2019

Within the blink of an eye 2019 is almost over, and my, what a year it has been! Everyone at immediate future has had a wonderful year full of hard work, laughter and much more. But, we couldn’t have done it without the help of our clients and agency friends, so thank you all.

From all of us here at immediate future, we wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
