"By being so you, you allow other people to be themselves." This week, one of our strategists, Russie M. took part in a panel at Campaign UK Live talking on reclaiming the narrative on black creativity. In response to the question, "How did you reclaim the narrative in an industry conversation that initially excluded you?" Russie shared insights on collaborating with industry leaders to create opportunities for junior and mid-level talent in advertising. By fostering connections and championing their growth through their former collective Fax No Printer, Russie highlighted the importance of giving a platform to emerging voices. This ongoing commitment serves as a consistent reminder to push for inclusivity across all levels of the industry, ensuring that the next generation is empowered to shape the future of advertising.

Introducing the Born Ready Class of 2024 🌟 Launched in 2023, Born Ready is our trainee scheme built to increase the grassroots diversity of the advertising industry by giving under-represented young talent the opportunity to get paid to get trained. After receiving over 300 applications for Year 2, this summer we welcomed Tyrese Walters and Tanya Tang for 12-weeks where they worked their way through Social-First School and Department Rotation before settling on their selected specialisms in Creative and Design. National Inclusion Week felt like a fitting time to share our yearbook celebrating the impact Tyrese and Tanya have made on the agency, and the contributions from across our team to bring Born Ready to life. #Nationalinclusionweek #ImpactMatters
