India is one of the most exciting market's in the world today. The economy is growing at 8% p.a., the consumers of India are increasingly brand conscious, businesses are expanding beyond the boundaries of South-East Asia as never seen before and international companies are either securing their foothold in India or finding their way in.
The fruitful partnership between e-Types and Creative Network has so far materialized in a series of projects that will be executed this fall.
"For a brand agency as e-Types India offers some opportunities that I don't think you will find anywhere else in the world", says senior consultant and India expert, Thomas Sehested, author of "India - the World's next Superpower" (Indien - verdens næste supermagt, L&R Business) in 2010. "But India is at the same time one of the most challenging markets for newcomers - it's a highly diverse country and it's well known for it's red tape. In short: if you want to enter India, find yourself a local partner."
And that's where Creative Network comes in – a creative services firm of almost 20 years. "We were looking for an international brand and design partner that could bring expertise on global scale into the Indian branding scene. We are very well known for our services within advertising, design management and our local knowledge about the Indian market, but when it comes to services in the area of brand strategy we felt that an international cooperation was the answer - and at e-Types we found what we were looking at", says Madhav Maheshwaran of Creative Network. "e-Types brings in a wealth of international brand thinking, and their work with some of the biggest corporates in Europe and other parts of the world is a true reflection of their potential. This helps Creative Network knock on some of the biggest business's in India, which need this kind of expertise."
