January 13, 2025 For the love of gaming. Why brands need to give themselves permission to play
The rise in gaming as an engaging place for brands to play in has made us curious. We think it's a fantastic opportunity for marketers, but in conversation with our own clients we realised that there may be some misperceptions around it.
So, with questions aplenty about what the world of gaming can offer brands in their strategic marketing mix, we go on a journey of exploration with our partner Livewire. Discussing its potential for new audiences, new brand connections and original, diverse, tailor made techniques for jumping in. Come and join us in busting the myths around brands in gaming.

May 15, 2023 Everything you wanted to know about the metaverse but were too scared to ask
There’s been a lot of talk about the metaverse, and a lot of time and money spent by brands to have a presence in it.

So, with questions aplenty about this brave new online world, we explain just what the metaverse is, look at which brands and demographics are most active in the metaverse right now and who will be best placed to benefit from its potential, and examine the best strategy for brands looking to show up in the metaverse.

Looking further ahead, we ask who’ll benefit most from the potential of the metaverse – creatives, corporates or individuals – and discuss its potential to become as mainstream as social media, together with the risks of getting it wrong.

June 22, 2022 Communicating change: How to create an effective comms framework
While the pace of global, economic and tech developments has made change a constant inevitability for organisations, there is a big difference between change that just happens and change that is planned.

We see change as opportunity. So, we’ve combined our understanding of complex corporates with change management theory to develop our own comms framework – to help drive and support effective organisational change.
