Changing the face of our industry

In 2022, we at ANCHOVY Studios plc and NIU Ltd finally decided to make our relationship official and merge the two companies. ANCHOVY was the wilder child in the playground. Known for its aggressive branding, marketing and disruptive web-design work, it was founded by brothers Benji and Zak Borg in 2012 as Malta’s first full service digital only agency. NIU was a very early leader in the web technology field. Assembling the brightest minds the island had to offer, in 2008 Matthew Sammut and James Abela founded what would soon become Malta’s leading web development and support agency, working on thousands of web and eCommerce applications along the way.
Years of collaboration; shared blood, sweat, tears and victories, led to the steps we took in making this relationship stronger than ever and finally, official. In 2022, we pushed to officially join teams and become a unified end-to-end digital company, offering the market a holistically integrated talent base to build and boost their digital transformation journeys.
We are very proud to share this milestone as it represents the culmination of a team with over 15 years of experience in supporting local and international brands with cutting-edge digital & tech solutions. As a group of over 70 passionate, creative and tech-savvy individuals, our mission is to break through the boundaries of conventional thinking, crafting innovative solutions that elevate brands to new heights and create meaningful connections with their audience.
