Guardian Brand Studio consists of a team of writers, designers, videographers, developers, and researchers that work with advertisers to create branded content to reach influential and well-educated audiences in Nigeria, locally and globally. They will use their journalistic and storytelling skills to work with brand marketing departments to create compelling content that will engage audiences on the platforms and beyond.
Toke Alex Ibru, executive director of
The Guardian Newspapers, says, “The media industry is continually evolving and requires publishers to adapt to the ever-changing needs of our audience and advertisers. The launch of Guardian Brand Studio continues to build on our vision to become the most progressive and innovative publisher across the region.”
Daryn Wober, CEO of Ventra Media and Guardian Digital, says, “The Guardian Brand Studio will allow our advertiser partners to create content and tell stories in partnership with a leading news brand. All the skills that
The Guardian has built around multiplatform journalism and content creation can be harnessed for the benefit of their brands.”
The studio has already worked with brands such as Zenith Bank, Jumia, Nairabet, and United Capital to deliver campaigns using editorial, photography, video, info-graphics, and technology. Advertisers provide Guardian Brand Studio with a creative brief and the team deliver a content and distribution strategy before moving to production and syndication. Content is then made available across all of
The Guardian’s platforms including print, online, Guardian TV, and social channels. Clients are also then able to utilise content and assets across their own platforms to achieve maximum reach and impact.
