Our esteemed Global Head of Influence Rahul Titus had an early morning wake up call, joining BBC News Business Today’s Lukwesa Burak for a fascinating conversation on ethics of AI within influence marketing. He talks the power of trust, safeguarding audiences and maintaining authenticity. Rahul Titus: “Influencer marketing works because people trust people more than they trust brands and AI if not adapted in the right way could risk the very foundation of the why creator marketing works - authenticity. This is why initiatives like Ogilvy’s AI Accountability Act are crucial to take us into the next chapter of an AI enabled creator marketing industry. Disclosing the use of AI in creator marketing allows us to preserve and build on the trust consumers and creators share.” See the comments to watch the interview...

Ogilvy takes Global Network of the Year at the LIA - London International Awards for the fourth year running! A fantastic evening welcoming the LIA’s into our office to present these awards, including trophies for Maaate (Mayor of London), The Melanoma Law (Skin Cancer UK) & You Already Vote, So Vote (My Life My Say).Andre (Dede) Laurentino, Ogilvy CCO, hosted the presentation and was joined by WPP CEO Mark Read and WPP Global CCO Rob Reilly, who both made a speech. Jules Chalkley, Chief Executive Creative Director, Ogilvy UK says: “Our first Mayor of London project, #haveaword, set out Sadiq’s long-term ambition to eradicate violence against women in London. Our second campaign #Maaate, embeds behavioural science at the heart of a unique and multidisciplined creative platform to give young men the tools to understand when they see misogyny, and enable them to stop it safely. By focusing on a simple expression of a single word in different media, our aim is to create something that allows sexist behaviour to be addressed at its root cause.”John McPartland, Executive Creative Director, Ogilvy Health UK, says: “I am very proud of our campaign. So much has changed in society in the last 13 years, the Sunbed Regulation Act as it stands simply isn’t fit for purpose. The huge spike in social media trends around using sunbeds in the last year is a reminder why we need to act now. Young people are seeing all the perceived benefits of using sunbeds on social media but aren’t being reminded of the dangers their use presents in later life. That is the true power of creativity - to change laws and change lives.”#borderlesscreativity

Our revered Chief Creative Officer Andre (Dede) Laurentino and Director of Consumer Equality Shelina Janmohamed brought creativity to parliament this week in a fiery debate organised by the IPA (Institute of Practitioners in Advertising). They came with passionate and provocative arguments opposing the motion “the anti-woke agenda is fuelling creativity” – showing why it devalues our work and that creativity thrives without resistance.
It's doesn't get bigger than the BFG. The marketing trades and national media have gone wild for the cinematic Christmas masterpiece for Sainsbury's created by our awesome colleagues at New Commercial Arts. The enchanting 104” epic adventure stars Roald Dahl’s timeless children’s storybook favourite the BFG. The campaign is New Commercial Art’s first collaboration with Ogilvy UK, which recently acquired the brand, and who created an instant digital experience, a social Taste The Difference campaign and an influencer drive. Aside from the BFG, other industry giants involved in this campaign included - director Sam Brown, voice over Stephen Fry and composer Alex Baranowski, who recorded the stunning soundtrack at Abbey Road with a 54-piece orchestra. There is nothing small about Sainsbury’s big Christmas campaign. Link to the film and coverage in the comments. #borderlesscreativity
