Founded with the vision to create a more cohesive agency model by uniting and empowering top diverse and creative talent globally, the agency’s latest move signals a renewed focus on helping global brands authentically connect with the Hispanic consumer. “Our goal is to develop creative cultural strategies to help brands connect authentically with U.S.-based Hispanic communities, ensuring everyone feels seen by the brands they love,” said Camila Straschnoy. Straschnoy has led major brands like C&A in Brazil to achieve regional impact by developing culturally resonant products and fostering strong brand-consumer connections.
