We are delighted to announce Blackwood’s continued expansion, with the opening of Blackwood Dubai بلكوود كريتيف to better serve our partners in the UAE and the wider Middle East region. With distinguished clients across the development, humanitarian, energy and healthcare sectors, we’re looking forward to this next phase in our development as we work with them to drive positive change across the region.

Our expansion into the UAE will enable us to bring our personal touch to clients across the region, and we look forward to working with them even more closely in the future.

Clare Ritchie, Client Service Director

Blackwood has been working in the Middle East region for over 10 years. During that time, we have built an impressive portfolio of design work across healthcare, education, finance and energy sectors, including high-profile projects for the UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure and the Islamic Development Bank.

Launched in 2010 in Brighton, UK, by Creative Director Andy Ritchie and Client Services Director Clare Ritchie, Blackwood has built an enviable reputation for high-quality print and digital communications which enable its clients to engage with diverse audiences in 18 languages across 47 countries. With projects ranging from high-impact annual reports to innovative animations and accessible websites, Blackwood acts as a trusted design partner to forward-thinking organisations driving positive change across the world.

Commenting on Blackwood’s expansion into Dubai, Clare Ritchie said: ‘We are delighted to establish a permanent presence in Dubai to continue to support and grow our client base in this ambitious and innovative region. Blackwood prides itself on bringing an intelligent and informed design approach to even the most complex communication projects. Our expansion into the UAE will enable us to bring our personal touch to clients across the region, and we look forward to working with them even more closely in the future.’
