G here. Jumping in this week to share some exciting news— Your Majesty has joined forces with digital engineering powerhouse Infinum .
This partnership means we can do more of what we love: marrying bold ideas and evocative design with uncompromising technical delivery. Together, we’re now a 400-person team with offices across the EU, UK, and US, offering an even broader range of solutions to transform complex challenges into beautiful brands and impactful digital experiences.
What does this mean for you, dear 10Things reader?
Not much, really. Your Majesty stays Your Majesty, and this newsletter remains one of our favorite things to put together. We’ll keep shipping you our fortnightly blend of design, technology, business insights, and random internet weirdness.
Now, back to our regular programming—featuring our latest research report The Anatomy of Hype, how unsold flowers become luxury fragrances, our work to combat human trafficking, and much more.
