Ross Crump
FounderRoss spent nearly seven years creating work for brands like Samsung, Cash App, Warner Bros, Meta, and Supercell before setting up Ardent. He founded the studio on the belief that purchase decisions are actually shaped inside communities. In Reddit threads, on Discord servers, and in the group chats.
Ardent is the agency built around that idea. Ross leads strategy across London and New York, helping brands understand the role communities play in achieving commercial success.
Our Principles
Honesty & Integrity
We care deeply about the reputation we build. Part of that is about developing long-lasting relationships with our clients, built on honesty, transparency and integrity. Basic principles, but important to reiterate.
Human-First
We are a human business that empowers our teams with AI. We will never implement AI processes or programs that risk putting our people or their success at a detriment.
Innovation at our Core
We innovate faster than anyone expects. We’re the first social studio to go big on community influence because we know it will change the way our industry operates. We move fast, but we do it with intelligence.
