Creative and strategic intelligence for brands and agencies.
About us
Contagious is a creative and strategic intelligence service that helps ad agencies and brands deliver more creative, innovative and effective marketing. We believe that creativity wins. In fact, when it comes to successful marketing, creativity kicks the living crap out of non-creative work. It’s that simple. And we believe that the best brands and campaigns are the ones that people feel compelled to talk about. The ones that earn a place in people’s lives by being useful, relevant or entertaining. But achieving that isn’t easy. So that’s where we come in. We provide inspiration and practical insights based on our interrogation of the world’s most exceptional campaigns and disruptive trends. We help people learn from the best so they can make the best. Our intelligence is delivered remotely, through our online tool, Contagious IQ as well as in person, through our events and advisory service. When some of the world’s biggest brands and ad agencies need to raise their creative bar, develop more compelling strategies, brief more effectively or get to grips with emerging technologies, Contagious is their first port of call. With offices in London and New York, we serve a global roster of brands, agencies, media companies, start-ups, governments and other organisations through our intelligence platform, briefings, live events and advisory services.
