Founded in 1993, The Reference was the first Belgian Web Agency and a European pioneer. It has always united its marketing skills and technical expertise to deliver attractive and performing web projects. Today it is an established and leading full service interactive agency with 80+ people. In 2007 The Reference became part of the Emakina Group. This merger allowed the Reference to continue its growth and provide its customers a more complete offering.
The Ghent based agency truly lives its adagio “it’s not a website, it’s your business”. This means that each and every project of The Reference focuses on how the internet can leverage its customers’ objectives. A thorough e-strategy subsequently gets shape in scalable and measurable web projects. Emakina/Perform - one of the Centers of Excellence established at The Reference – supports this result driven approach. Another cornerstone of The Reference’s value proposition is linked to the e-merging market of new devices. Emakina/Mobile offers tailor made solutions for websites and applications for smart phones, tablets and kiosks.
The Reference has realized numerous projects for large accounts: ZLM verzekeringen, Bekaert, Luminus, Thomas Cook, KBC, Attentia, VRT, Atos Wordline, Borealis, Makro, VMMa, USG People, International Crisis Group, International Post Corporation, Fluxys, Santander, Truvo, KBVB/URBSFA, Immoweb, Stepstone, Esko Artwork, FMSA, SD Worx, Fanuc Robotics, Isabel, Daikin, Tractebel Engineering, Fabricom…
