Branding An International Event
The MIT Graduate School of Real Estate commissioned Launchpad Boston to create a new identity, market its international real estate forum, and produce its event promotional collateral and signage. The day-long event was a convergence of some of the most prolific and accomplished real estate executives around the globe, discussing the international real estate market, as it pertains to Boston's realty investments. In addition to topics of discussion, the finals of The Case were held; an annual international event that pits teams of the best real estate graduate schools competing in a realty development contest - taking a live parcel and presenting plans to develop the land into an investment portfolio. The lot was on the site of The San Francisco Giants baseball team.

Digital Publication
LPB was tasked with launching a new vertical publication covering the commercial real estate asset arena. Our strategy was to develop a hybrid news product, combing current technologies with traditional print make-up - knowing the industry’s demographic reach. The result has been heralded as, “the most insightful, timely publication in the CRE arena,” by its C-level readers, and was awarded "Best Web Site" by the National Association of Real Estate Editors in 2012. We built a publication that has all the navigation of a newspaper, but is delivered electronically to 22,000 professionals as a PDF, and updated as news breaks on TheRealReporter.com; while pushed through social media announcements. Advertisers have multiple options of reaching a powerful target of readers, while readers have an in-depth dissection of Greater Boston's investment marketplace.

A Resourceful Reach
This international tenant representative Group needed a visual creative to position its independent offices as a global foot print for real estate services - on a tight budget. We developed the idea of having each regional director mimic the same script of, "I am global, while adding their local tag/positioning to the video. The campaign delivers an authenticity by using real people in their native cities, expressing the same, simple global message. We edited the video and customized the final call to action for each office by changing the contact frames. Each office purchased local media placement. Some US offices have placed media inside taxi cabs.
