Why Ohio?
Amify will establish a second office in an up-and-coming Cincinnati neighborhood known for marketing, advertising and agency talent. The city is a branding and marketing hotbed, whose Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) is the site of Amazon’s future $1.5 billion Prime Air hub.
Amazon has multiple investments in Ohio for a variety of operations. This is beneficial to companies working with Amazon, including Amify, and proof that Ohio has a unique mix of assets valuable to companies.
The creative and collaborative space will attract top talent to support growth in Cincinnati and serve as a centrally located hub to host clients for Amazon strategy sessions.
