elcap triple shortlisted at the Northern Digital Awards 2027

We’re thrilled to announce that elcap has been nominated in all three categories we entered at this year’s Northern Digital Awards: Best Website, Best Agency Culture, and Best Small Digital Agency of the Year.

The entries reflected our work between June 2025 and October 2026, a period of significant growth for the agency. Over those 16 months, the team grew from nine to eleven people, and we launched a new service line: an in-house UX lab.

We also won new business, received a HubSpot Pipeline Powerplay award, and exceeded our revenue targets. Our client work included a full inbound content strategy and B Corp-led positioning for Brodericks.

Our people are at the centre of all of this.

We have a strong, close-knit team who have grown alongside the agency. This year alone, two team members completed degree apprenticeships, and our tech team has progressed from junior to mid-weight. We invest in our people because their growth drives everything we deliver for clients.

We believe this reflects the culture Andy has built, where specialists are encouraged to speak up in their own area, are listened to, and develop ideas together.

“Being nominated in every category we entered means a great deal to us. It recognises a team that challenges how agencies should work and supports one another to try new things. Our people are the reason clients stay with us, and the reason our team stays too. Whatever the outcome, I am incredibly proud of them.”
- Andy Sweeting, Founder, elcap

The winners will be announced in Manchester on 28th January 2027.
