Studio M operated from 2004 until it closed its doors in 2023.
Here is how they described themselves:
Toronto based boutique creative agency Studio M (founded in 2004) has always punched above their weight class. They have consistently delivered impactful work for a range of top brands including WestJet, Under Armour, Telus, Weber, Quaker and Tostitos. They have been recognized with the most prestigious industry awards both in Canada and internationally for their work, including two Cannes Lions.
However there’s something more - something intangible about Studio M that has fueled their success, something that can’t be explained by business models or org charts. Whether it’s the internationally famous WestJet Christmas Miracle, breakthrough work for Quaker, Telefora or Ronald McDonald House – there is an emotional resonance to their work that drives change for brands. Indeed: the Globe & Mail has called Studio M the “emotion factory.” The simple truth of it: Studio M has heart and their work is a reflection of their founding values. The agency’s purpose is to “Make it Matter.” And that is exactly what they do.
