Translation to Close Its Chicago Office

We’ve just received word that New York-based Translation, the agency famously founded by Steve Stoute in partnership with Jay-Z, will be shuttering its Chicago office.

Founder/CEO Stoute writes:

“As an agency our mission has always been to provide exceptional service to our clients, and to bring purpose and precision to our creative output. With the recent additions of President Nils Peyron and CCO John Norman in New York, and always with an eye toward the long-term growth of our organization, we have made the decision to bring our team together in New York and close Translation’s Chicago office. This was a hard choice for all of us, but one that will strengthen the agency immediately and for years to come.”
