Already an established brand outside of Singapore, we dug into ESSEC Business School’s rich history and values to understand and differentiate the ESSEC brand. Through our brand platform exercise, we identified the key insight that ESSEC went beyond just education to ‘Transform the Human Spirit’. This holistic shaping of mind, body, and soul that was built into ESSEC’s ethos would appeal to the breed of current and potential business leaders desiring not just knowledge, but a distinctive “leadership” change.

Taking that key insight, we developed a campaign for a Speaker Series partnering with leading brands that shared similarly disruptive “values” and DNA. This was embodied in the creative execution, effectively throwing the gauntlet down to draw in those who aspired to be bold enough to impact the world for good. The campaign was rolled out across a range of targeted digital and social media, all driving traffic towards a landing page for registration.
