Reflection on one of the most ambitious projects we ever launched
Hi. My name is Andy. Ambitious projects are something that help us all get out of bed every morning. And over the years I got to be part of my fair share. I got to watch a Jeep Renegade dangling from a helicopter, fly deep into the Carpathian Mountain range where we dropped it off with the keys in the ignition and invited fans to come and get it. We got to develop a lollipop (Lifelolli) that saved the lives of over 30 people with blood cancer by matching them with their genetic twins. We got to rewrite history books by collaborating with scientists to find (and name) a new species with plastic already in its gut, 7000m down the Mariana trench. Google Eurythenes plasticus - this little shrimp made quite a splash for the WWF.
But now, I would like to reflect on the next project we are launching that might just top the lot. I won’t reveal too much but let me say this: It’s definitely one of a kind, it involves my favourite German celebrity and there’s merchandise that I will be giving away to those who are following along closely 😁. So, join me for what I hope to be an inspiring, fun and most certainly creative morning in our House Of Communication in Cologne.
