Digital experiences define how we connect, work, and thrive today. We use our apps for everything from paying for gas at a convenience store to ordering groceries to making financial investments.

But who are the people behind the apps who determine how we might connect, work and thrive? And how do they make those experiences user-focused?

Thirdbridge is making waves by turning bold ideas into powerful digital apps and experiences. We’re proud to spotlight Thirdbridge as one of our valued Nexus Partners.

Who is Thirdbridge?

Thirdbridge isn’t just another digital agency—they’re a team of innovators, problem-solvers, and creative minds dedicated to crafting digital experiences that make an impact.

Whether it’s building mobile apps, web platforms, or custom software, their focus is clear: create meaningful technology that connects businesses to their audience in the most effective way possible.

What makes them stand out? It’s their user-first mindset. Thirdbridge doesn’t just build digital tools—they design experiences that are intuitive, engaging, and built to perform. Their goal is to create digital experiences that not only look great but also deliver real results.

Founded in 2012 by Pierre-Etienne Bousquet and Nicolas St-Aubin, both old friends and university students at the time, Thirdbridge now is a team of 60 people, including Nicolas’ brother and sister, Alex and Emilie St-Aubin. Over the past 13 years, they’ve built deep expertise in the retail industry by developing loyalty apps with more than 20 million users. Thirdbridge believes that investing in your mobile app means becoming part of your consumers’ daily lives—and they’ve been helping businesses do just that since day one.

Meet the Team

The heart of Thirdbridge is their talented and tight-knit team. From creative designers to meticulous developers and strategic thinkers, the Thirdbridge crew thrives on collaboration. Pierre-Etienne, Nicolas, Emilie and Alex set the tone for a culture that blends professionalism with personality — their team doesn’t just build apps; they build relationships along the way that are as strong and memorable.

During their frequent visits to NextSpace, you’ll often find Pierre-Etienne sharing an espresso-fueled idea sprint, Nicolas diving into technical details, and Alex keeping the energy high with his infectious enthusiasm. Their team is known for working hard but never missing an opportunity to connect, and brainstorm fresh ideas that push projects to new heights.

It’s this dynamic blend of skills, camaraderie, and creative problem-solving that makes Thirdbridge stand out — not just as innovators, but as people you genuinely want to work with.

They always bring a breath of fresh air to NextSpace when they are in town each month, meeting with local clients, participating in Nexus Partners meetings and recording one of their two podcasts, Product Misfires, which explores lessons learned from real-world digital projects, in our NextSpace Studios.
