Trampoline is a full-service marketing, branding, advertising, web development and mobile agency headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The firm was founded in 1988 and originally named Page & Wood. The agency was renamed Trampoline Creative Inc. in 2004 and has operated as Trampoline and Trampoline Branding. In 2018, Trampoline publicly launched Twist by Trampoline, an agency within the agency dedicated to smaller businesses that wouldn't typically work with a larger agency. Late in 2018, Twist purchased BITS Creative agency,[1] fully staffing itself to offer significant digital and web services beyond what Twist and Trampoline offered in the past.

In July 2011, Trampoline relocated its head office from Alexander Keith's Brewery Market complex to the former Carsand Mosher building at the corner of Blower Street and Barrington Street as part of the revitalization of Halifax's downtown core. In late 2019, the agency returned to the Brewery Market in the former CBCL building facing Hollis Street.

Page & Wood

Page & Wood was founded in 1988 by Eric Wood and Dennis Page, father of actor Elliot Page. The firm was renamed Trampoline in 2004. Mark and Leslie Gascogine purchased the agency in 2007.

Twist & Bits

Twist by Trampoline was founded as Brandbounce and later renamed. In late 2018, Twist also purchased Ian Bezanson's BITS Creative Agency which was founded in the early 2000s in the basement of Bezanson's home. Twist & Bits continues as an agency within the agency and a separate identity today, but is closely affiliated with Trampoline.
