RE-UPdate #11

It’s the 1st May – did you see that coming? We certainly didn’t. Oh how time flies, but we’re feeling alive more than ever!

With our current projects in full action, we’ve been typing away, chatting away, brainstorming away and networking with some new faces. On Wednesday, our strategic planner Dan, headed down to the ExCel Centre to check out the Adobe Summit and the new tech products that will be popping up in the near future. From hearing about a new partnership with the two giants Adobe and Microsoft, the star of the show was a talk from physics guru Brian Cox – jealous or what?! You can find out the full deets of the day here.

Continuing with tech trends, we were soooo happy to hear about the new advertising emojis! After much debate of whether emojis could be a new form of digital language, it seems like these new sets of emojis are right up our street.

In other news, things are looking foxy and fabulous with Firefox OS Africa, where we’ve been working with many teams in the quest to growing relationships with communities. And with Méduse, we’re also growing ties across the world, with the launch of two new contests. Very, jelly exciting indeed!

And to top it off, we also finished off four major projects for marketing research company TNS. This included a social listening report on the status brands have in Formula 1, and a report on the impact of automotive on advertising in encouraging conversation and digital interest.

That’s us for now, catch us next week.

Have a very sweet bank holiday weekend!

Up, up and away!
