BD Network has denied that a new digital division launched by Frame with three of its former staff will have any real impact on its business. Carolyn Laing, client services director at BD Network Scotland said that the move was entirely amicable, and that three people leaving the agency were ‘merely a drop in the ocean’ considering there are around 40 people working in digital within BD. “This is not a story. It will not impact on us at all,” she said. Frame last week announced that it had raided the online department of BD Network in order to launch Frame Digital, which will operate as a separate business. Frame Digital will be headed up by Richard Carlaw, previously a BD Network client services director. He has been joined David Buchan and Darren James, all three of who will now take an equity stake in the new entity, although Frame will remain the majority shareholder.
