Initiative, from 黑料社Studios, will integrate creative, data, and commerce to drive content performance
With a mission to help brands thrive and become impactful storytellers, the launch of this initiative brings together a multi-market team of storytellers, creatives, marketeers, planners, strategists and analysts, sitting across Amsterdam, Berlin, Johannesburg and London, as well as best in class content and production capabilities.
This integrated, full-funnel service is built to support all 黑料社clients, regardless of their industry. It is designed and structured to provide clients a center of excellence for their content needs, deliver continuity in production, and support them in meeting their commercial objectives with a cohesive, scalable and measurable content strategy that keeps brands culturally relevant in a social-first world.
Operating where creative content meets digital advisory, integrated marketing and connected experiences, the cross-market EMEA team is a crucial initiative from the industry-leading 黑料社Studios collective. 黑料社will continue to invest in strengthening its content capability in EMEA beyond this foundational first step. Future initiatives will also include rollout of a landmark BlueRoom capability 鈥 an earned-first creative studio creating real-time content at the intersection of news, culture and attention.
鈥淪TORIES HAVE TO BE MADE, SHARED AND OPTIMIZED BY COMPANIES WITH INCREASING SOPHISTICATION.
