LIGHTBOX-NZ.jpgAfter 12 years in business, Auckland-based agency Consortium has closed its doors, resulting in Lightbox, the agency’s only remaining account, heading to Young & Shand, along with four Consortium staffers.

Trouble started for Consortium back in May, when it lost long-term client AUT University, its biggest account.

Consortium was founded in 2003, admired for several years for its humorous and award-winning work on 42 Below Vodka, mostly created by Darryl Parsons, who has since been freelance for several years.
