Best Creative Agencies in Copenhagen (2026)

Introduction

Copenhagen is the largest agency market in Denmark, and the nine creative agencies below are a good starting point for a brand looking for an independent or integrated idea shop there. They were chosen for recent work, recognition and the strength of their client rosters.

The past two years brought several changes. Marketsquare joined the European communications network Only in 2025, with its former owners becoming shareholders in the group. &Co. was named Denmark’s agency of the year at Eurobest 2025, and Advance marked its 50th anniversary in 2026 and became a Certified B Corporation that October. Omnicom’s acquisition of IPG, completed at the end of 2025, retired the DDB brand, which mostly affects the network end of the market.

Every agency here has an active Copenhagen office in 2026. The list runs in no fixed order of merit, since the right choice depends on your brief, budget and how you like to work. Network offices are covered on our advertising agencies page, and design studios on the design and branding pages.

The best creative agencies in Copenhagen

1. &Co.

NoA · Indre By · andco.dk

&Co. was founded around 2000 by Mikael Jørgensen, Thomas Hoffmann and Robert Cerkez, with DDB as co-owner. The partners bought DDB out in 2010 and joined the Nordic group now called NoA in 2014. At Eurobest 2025 it was named agency of the year for Denmark and shared the Creative Effectiveness Grand Prix with the European Parliament for “Pass It On”, the 2024 European elections campaign.

Its portfolio mixes public causes with large Danish companies: Vestas, Maersk, Novo Nordisk, Greenpeace, the Danish Cancer Society with TrygFonden, and Vipps MobilePay. D&AD lists five Graphite and 13 Wood Pencils for the agency, including work for Velux (“The Indoor Generation”) and TV 2 (“All That We Share”).

2. Worth Your While

Independent · Copenhagen · worthyourwhile.dk

Worth Your While is an independent founded in Copenhagen in 2020 and a member of By The Network, a co-operative of 29 agencies. Rikke Wichmann-Bruun joined as managing partner in May 2026 to run operations in Copenhagen and London alongside founder and CEO Morten Ingemann.

Recent work leans towards causes and sport. “In the Name of Hunger” put the names of people from the 18 countries hit hardest by hunger on Aalborg Håndbold’s shirts for a play-off match in May 2026, raising over DKK 220,000 for the UN World Food Programme. Other clients include Plastic Change, Tuborg (“Feel The Drop”, which ran in Asia and Europe) and Carlsberg, for which the agency made a stop-motion film from Liverpool fans’ tattoos.

3. Uncle Grey

WPP-backed, part of the AKQA group · Indre By · unclegrey.dk

Uncle Grey is the Danish agency in the Grey network, with its main office on Rosenborggade and a second in Aarhus. It groups its work under advertising, design, PR and public affairs, and studio, and lists 57 people on its site. The agency counts 15 Cannes Lions and 33 Creative Circle awards, including 2026 Creative Circle silvers for “EKSTRA” in the Integrated Campaigns and Ambient categories.

“EKSTRA” was made for Ekstra Bladet. Other recent work includes “WiFi Invasion” for Waoo, “Unsung Heroes” for Canon, a brandbook for Bolia and a design project for Ferrari with Alba. Since the agency also has an Aarhus office, it is worth asking where your team will sit.

4. Wibroe, Duckert & Partners

Partner-owned · Indre By · wdp.dk

Founded in 1973 and known in the trade as Partners, this is a long-standing name in Danish advertising. Henrik Juul bought out Jan Duckert in 2015 and leads the agency today with a group of partners. It now describes itself as a brand consulting agency working across strategy, brand design, campaigns and digital experiences.

Its Tuborg relationship passed 50 years in 2023 and remains active, with new Tuborg items on the agency’s site in September 2026. Other recent work covers Salling, Copenhell and the rebrand of KK Wind Solutions as KK Group. It is a smaller business than it was at its peak, so partners are likely to be close to the work.

5. Mensch

Partnership · Indre By · mensch.dk

Mensch is a strategic and creative communications agency on Bredgade, registered in 2012 and run as a partnership. Company records show 16 employees for 2025. Its work is organised under communication, brands and design, and often moves between advertising and news-making events.

“Closed for Maintenance” for Visit Faroe Islands and “Quit Meat Helpline” for Simple Feast are among its best-known projects. Other clients on its site include A.P. Møller Maersk, Politiken, Clever, Dansk Erhverv and Det Kongelige Teater. With a team of this size, it suits brands that want a campaign with a news angle.

6. Marketsquare

Only network, partner shareholders · Indre By · marketsquare.dk

Marketsquare was founded in 1993 and joined Only, a European strategic communication network of 19 agencies, in 2025. Its former owners, including CEO Jens Thrane-Møller and executive creative director David Asmussen, became shareholders in Only. The office is on Store Kongensgade.

IKEA has the most cases on its work page, from “55 years in Danish homes” to the mattress recycling work. “Cirkulär” for IKEA, made with Accenture Song and Dentsu X, won a Media Grand Prix at Eurobest in 2022. Other clients include Toyota, MENY, Rosendahl Design Group, Fritz Hansen and Hans Just, for which it made “FingerMittens”.

7. Advance

Independent, Worldwide Partners shareholder · Indre By · advance.dk

Advance is a branding and marketing agency founded in 1976, with more than 60 staff on Landemærket. It has been a partner in the Worldwide Partners network of independents since 2018 and a shareholder since 2020. It celebrated its 50th anniversary in August 2026 and became a Certified B Corporation in October.

The LEGO Group has worked with the agency since its founding year. Much of the current portfolio is in medtech and B2B: Coloplast, Xylem’s Flygt, Signia, Rexton and Ormco, along with By & Havn’s Ørestad work. It suits regulated or technical categories that need campaign thinking.

8. Kunde & Co

Founder-led · Østerbro · kunde-co.com

Kunde & Co is a full-service agency and strategic advisory founded by Jesper Kunde, who remains CEO, and has worked with clients since 1988. It has more than 100 people across Copenhagen, Düsseldorf and Zürich, with the Danish office at Østerfælled Torv.

Its client list leans towards large B2B and industrial brands such as Maersk, Grundfos, Danfoss, Ramboll, Oticon, Falck and Siemens. Featured cases include a brand positioning for føtex, a new organic product concept for Tjele Gods, and Eilersen, where AI was used to extend the brand’s creative universe.

9. NR2154

Founder-led · Frederiksberg · nr2154.com

NR2154 is a strategic creative studio co-founded by Jacob Wildschiødtz and Troels Faber, with offices in Frederiksberg, New York and Paris. Faber leads the Copenhagen design team. It works across brand identity, product and packaging, and campaign and content, including film and printed matter.

The client list is mainly luxury, fashion and beauty: Hennessy, Moët & Chandon, MAC, Yves Saint Laurent, Victoria’s Secret, and The Garment. Since the studio runs across three cities, it is worth asking which one will lead your project.

What to look for in a Copenhagen creative agency

Start with ownership, as it affects who makes decisions and how much of a wider group comes with the account. This list includes outright independents such as Worth Your While, partner-owned shops such as Wibroe, Duckert & Partners, and agencies inside larger groups such as &Co. (NoA) and Marketsquare (Only). A group connection can help with Nordic or European roll-outs, while a small partnership tends to give you more of the senior people.

Check sector experience against the kind of client Copenhagen produces. Many of the city’s large accounts are in pharma and life sciences, shipping and energy, or design and furniture, and each brings its own constraints on claims, approvals and tone. An agency that has worked with Novo Nordisk or Coloplast will know a regulated review process, and one that has worked with Fritz Hansen will know how much a design brand cares about craft.

Ask where the work will be made and in which languages. Several agencies here also have offices elsewhere: Uncle Grey in Aarhus, Worth Your While in London, Kunde & Co in Germany and Switzerland, and NR2154 in New York and Paris. If a campaign has to run in Danish and English, or further afield, it helps to see an example and meet the people who made it.

Finally, look at how the agency handles the day-to-day: where files live, how feedback is gathered, and how approvals are tracked. Danish brands and their agencies often have several reviewers across marketing, legal and regional teams, and comments spread across email are slow to reconcile. A clear review process and a single place to find the latest version make a long relationship easier to run.

How Fabric helps creative agency teams

Fabric gives an agency one workspace for its files, client feedback and team knowledge, with AI search across all of it. The agency setup suits shops running several accounts at once: one space per client, with briefs, assets, decks and call notes kept together.

Large production files sit in Fabric’s cloud drive, which streams files on demand so they take no local disk space, and editors and designers can open heavy files without a full download. Search works by meaning across documents, images and transcribed recordings, and results jump to the page or timestamp. Colour search finds visual assets by shade, which helps when pulling references for a design-led brand.

Client feedback runs through shared links. Share a file or folder with the client as a commenter and they can respond without signing up, using threaded comments and annotations. They can leave timestamped comments on video and audio, draw on a video frame, draw on an image and attach a comment, or highlight text in a PDF. Your team then marks each comment completed, so the round of feedback works like a checklist.

For finished work, any file or folder can be published as a web page, which is view-only and updates when the source changes. Link analytics shows when each named recipient opened a link and how long they spent with it, which helps with pitch decks.

On Team plans, self-writing docs can maintain a page for each client from meetings, Slack and the workspace itself, covering decisions, deliverables and open items. New account staff get the history without asking around.

Link analytics is included on Pro and Team plans, and self-writing docs on Team plans. See plans for teams.
