A Guinness World Record at Beijing Design Week

February 15, 2016 admin Leave a comment

Launched in 2009, Beijing Design Week is a citywide event co-hosted by the Beijing Municipal Government, the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Science and Technology, to nurture a culture of design in a Chinese context.

With seven key sections – Opening Ceremony, Design Awards, Design Market, Design Talent, Smart City, Design HOP, Guest City – Beijing Design Week features hundreds of international exhibitions and public events providing the most influential platform in China, indeed in Asia, for the display, promotion and exchange of creative ideas.

We brought Beijing Design Week 2015 and Parkview Green together, creating a new hub around ‘New Forms of Making’, showcasing 3D printing, and created a Guinness World Record in the process.

British Fair

June 6, 2014 admin Leave a comment

Accessing China can be a daunting and very expensive prospect for international brands who do not have experience of the country or the necessary network.

We created British Fair as an always-on brand communications membership platform to enable brands to access the China market, build brand awareness and drive initial sales and grow local loyalty.

This allows businesses to build relationships with local customers across China quickly and easily and learn first hand about the market in order to make informed longer term strategic decisions.

Nursery School Guides

June 6, 2014 admin Leave a comment

The Nursery School Guide has been devised and designed by education advisors and early years specialists. It aims to give parents as much information as possible about nurseries in London, as well as explaining a few things along the way.

The NSG makes easily searchable the hundreds of institutions across London and has important up-to-date information about each one, from the contact information of the schools themselves to their opening times, age range, registration fees and the schools they feed into. The NSG gives you all this information at your fingertips and more if you choose to register (for free!).

Worldwide Helpers is a groundbreaking online community that aims to foster interaction between volunteers and charitable organisations around the world by offering volunteers free access to global low cost / no-cost volunteering opportunities.

After refreshing the brand, we created the WWH platform with a full suite of digital community features and functionality that allow volunteers and organisations to interact, share knowledge and experience, to learn from and inspire each other.

Users can create profiles, projects, blogs, albums, events, causes, forums, message each other and find travel companions. A classified section offers volunteers and charities to sell / request goods while the WWH shop provides exclusive offers to the community.

The whole platform is run on an integrated system that will capture data to be used for greater understanding of where help is needed most.
