Activation Case Studies
What are Activation Case Studies?
Each of our case studies takes an activation produced by an agency, brand and a rights-holder. We then explain the objectives of the campaign, detail the practical elements of the activation and report the outcomes.
Each year we publish over 200 activation case studies – 24 every month.

What should I expect in each case study?
