We’re buzzing with excitement at Islands Brygge! IIH Nordic have received 11 nominations at the prestigious European Search Awards 2025, and it’s a moment of great pride and celebration for the entire team. In a year with thousands of submissions from the best agencies across Europe, our recognition across nine different clients and eleven standout cases cements our position as a top-tier digital consultancy.

These nominations span SEO, PPC, B2B, B2C, healthcare, travel, finance, and more – proving the strength and adaptability of our cross-disciplinary teams and the trust our clients place in us. This is more than an agency milestone. It’s a shared achievement with every ambitious client we’ve partnered with.

Denmark’s Most Shortlisted Digital Agency

Since its inception in 2011, the European Search Awards has celebrated the most effective, innovative, and impactful digital campaigns in Europe. This year, IIH Nordic stands out as the most shortlisted Danish agency, once again highlighting our role as pioneers in digital transformation.

Our team’s work has not only delivered results – it has set new benchmarks for what is possible when strategy, creativity, and technology come together.

“Innovation and curiosity drive us forward”

Behind every nomination is a story of collaboration, data intelligence, and strategic execution. Jonas Østerbye, Director of Marketing & Commercial Performance at IIH Nordic, reflects on what this recognition means:

There’s always something special about seeing the work we do every day—with colleagues and clients—being recognised like this. Being shortlisted across multiple categories is a sign of the innovation, curiosity, and drive our team brings to the table—every single day. 11 nominations is amazing in itself, but what really stands out to me is that they span across 9 of our clients with 10 different cases—that really says something about how broad our capabilities are, and how consistently we’re able to deliver impact across different industries, challenges, and teams.

It’s also interesting to look at this year’s shortlist, where independent agencies seem to be making a strong showing compared to some of the larger global networks. On top of that, I’m seeing a shift in how AI is creating value for us and our clients. Everyone can scale output with AI these days, so for us, it’s just as much about elevating quality—and I think that really comes through in the work we’ve been nominated for. Craft still matters—a lot. And it’s that combination of strong execution and our specialists’ deep understanding of our clients’ businesses that truly drives value.

Proud to be part of the team at IIH Nordic—and a big thank you to our clients for giving us the space to challenge the boundaries together.

Award-Winning Campaigns Powered by Data and AI

At the heart of every case lies a sharp, data-driven approach. Whether through Performance Max campaigns, advanced SEO migrations, or SA360 strategies, our consultants combine cutting-edge technology with deep business understanding to create real, measurable impact.
