For the past 13 years, Horizon Interactive Awards has become one of the most prestigious awards in the field of interactive and creative media. The 2014 competition saw over 1,200 entries from nearly all 50 States and 27 countries around world.

I haven’t regretted that decision once”, says Janel Cabadas, Marketing Director at Earthmover. “The whole process was quick, creative, and simple. I essentially told them my vision and they ran with it and hit everything I requested without having to compromise on design. Winning a Horizon Interactive Award is icing on the cake!”

Fox Valley Credit Union has also made headlines for their new responsive website. The Financial Brand has ranked Fox Valley Credit Union’s website as the 22nd most Inspirational and Responsive Banking Website Design. LKCS and Fox Valley used bright colors and a clean navigation to improve the online and mobile experience for each member.
