About Highdive

Founded in 2016 by Mark Gross and Chad Broude, Highdive is an advertising agency with offices in Chicago, Illinois and New York. Its work also spans Strategy and Brand.

Highdive is an independent Chicago agency founded in 2016 by Mark Gross and Chad Broude, both veterans of the big-network world. It has become something of a Super Bowl dynasty, taking the number-one spot on the USA TODAY Ad Meter multiple years in a row, and now works from Chicago and New York with a full-service, creative-first model.

Highdive's proposition is blockbuster, broadly loved advertising, Super Bowl-grade ideas from an independent team. Its Ad Meter dominance is a genuine calling card, though a reputation built on the biggest stage invites the question of depth across smaller, always-on work.
