New Digital Agency Beachball Media Lands in Australia

9th September, 2011.

Former Facebook staffer Chris Adams and ex-Kellogg's Tim Bond have teamed up to launch new agency Beach Ball focussing on digital and social media communication.

Adams cut his teeth on digital in the mid 90s, helping Amazon do deals in the entertainment, media, television, music and film industries then went on to work with Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook.

He also helped build and run Participant Media with eBay founder Jeff Skoll leading the studio to 11 Academy Award nominations and 4 Oscars.

Bond has worked on some of the world’s biggest brands including Kellogg’s, Unilever, Ford, Proctor and Gamble and Glaxo Wellcome.

Now he has teamed up with Adams to form beach ball media which he says will help "brands find their way through the maze of digital and social media communication."

“We are looking to Asia. Connecting Asia with North America and Europe and back to Asia. Content, Apps campaigns, tourism, movies, television, branded content and entertainment – social and digital media have connected users but not countries. The time is now to get users, content and countries connected through digital, social and traditional media,” Adams said.
