TheeDigital has earned a Silver award in the 2026 Summit Creative Award, an international competition that has recognized creative excellence for more than three decades. The award honors Custom Web Design for Motion Equipment Manufacturer, work created for Griffin Motion in the Websites category.
The project was developed to replace an outdated website that no longer allowed Griffin Motion, a North Carolina precision instrumentation manufacturer serving industries from nanotechnology to optics, to showcase its full range of products and capabilities. TheeDigital designed and built a custom WordPress website that communicates capability at a glance and established the technical foundation for the SEO program that followed, driving a 175% increase in organic search leads and a 167% year-over-year increase in website sessions.
“Griffin Motion builds equipment that operates at nanometer-level precision. Their website needed to communicate that same level of quality. We're proud that the Summit judges recognized what our team built, and even prouder that it's producing real results: a 175% increase in organic leads and 99 keywords on page one in six months.” - Keri Rosemond, VP of Operations
"This win belongs to our whole team. We set out to build Griffin Motion a website that works as hard as their equipment does, one that showcases deeply technical products clearly and turns visitors into leads. Seeing that work recognized on an international stage alongside our peers is an honor." - Richard Horvath, Owner and President, TheeDigital
An international panel of experienced advertising and marketing professionals evaluated the entries through a blind judging process. Judges considered the strength of the idea, quality of execution, and ability of the work to communicate effectively within its category. Each entry was identified only by a code so the work could be considered on its merits.
Now in its fourth decade, the Summit Creative Award provides firms with annual billings under $40 million an international forum for creative work across advertising, design, digital, video, public relations and related disciplines.
