47% increase in award entries after launching the new brand.
The Young Creative Awards is an annual creative competition open to all 13-24 year olds, working, living or studying in Nottingham. Our involvement began in 2015 and since then we’ve helped develop a new brand and programme strategy that resonates with a complex target audience made up of young people, stakeholders, Government organisations and corporate organisations.
You can’t build an effective brand without basing it on solid insight. We held focus groups with young people and stakeholders to gain a 360º view of what the YCA means to them, we then created concepts and tested them. The results helped us co-create a robust business strategy, brand platform, brand assets and a website.
Michon are proud to be sponsors and strategic partners
The brand was launched in January 2016 to a packed audience of business leaders, stakeholders and supporters. Followed by the Young Creative Awards presentations in May 2016 where the brand was showcased over a number of different media.
“Michon are highly creative and imaginative, helpful and collaborative and they are great people.
They gave the Nottingham Young Creative Awards a truly excellent product. I look forward to working with them again in the future.”
