Cleanup areas for this article:

• NPOV -- reads like a press release. "one of the world’s leading" is bad -- who says? Is there a citation for this? This is non-neutral language.
• be more clear about what the company does. What exactly is "technologically enabled digital experiences"? Web design? something else? Wikipedia is not written for industry, it's written for the general public.
• needs to be wikified & linked to other articles
• needs to be dated -- "currently" is bad, as the article will date (currently when?)
• Needs citations. How do we know who their clients are? Or when they were founded? Was this written by an employee? Even if factually correct, still needs citations for verification. The company website is not good enough; need outside citations too.

  re: tone & style.

Also see: notability for organizations & companies -- talks about citations.

I did some work on cleaning up the language. Could still use some citations, etc. -- phoebe/(talk) 18:27, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the subject of this article meets the notability threshold established by Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies). To avoid being nominated for deletion, please address this.Wowaconia (talk) 20:28, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In addition to being not notable it is factually inaccurate. The article states that they're in Seattle but the company's own page states that it is in Bellevue (a city east of Seattle).
