Three months after Razorfish acquired a majority stake in fellow New York new media company Avalanche Solutions, the two firms have merged into one entity, Razorfish Inc. Terms were not disclosed.
The new company, with nearly 100 employees, officially starts operations today, with the former Avalanche employees moving into the two-floor loft space Razorfish has in SoHo.
“It will be one brand, one management team, one focus,” said Jeff Dachis, president and chief executive officer of Razorfish.
Peter Seidler, chairman and chief creative officer of Avalanche, becomes chief creative officer of Razorfish, and Troy Tyler, Avalanche’s executive vice president, chief operating officer, serves as executive vice president of the new company.
