Brand. Done well, it encapsulates the vision and values of a firm – it supports the culture, creating expectations both within and outside the organisation.
82% of brand-led businesses outperform their competitors (source: Booz Allen Hamilton & Wolff Olins 2005). To find out how they do it, why not join us to hear from speakers who have created successful brand-led businesses. See how building a brand that becomes everything a client sees, hears and touches can create richer and more valuable relationships.

Credo Asset Finance are on the lookout to recruit 20 teams to join them as they travel across Europe and visit the three stadiums that Norwich City Football Club played in during their famous 1993/1994 UEFA Cup Run.
Named the Credo ‘Canaryball Rally’ the teams will start in Norwich, before driving to Arnhem in Holland, Munich in Germany and finally Milan in Italy all in the aid of their chosen charity Community Sports Foundation and their #BuildTheNest campaign.
Credo Managing Director Simon Gray said: “I have always wanted to put a challenge on like this. I have a love of cars and football and this seemed perfect! This year at Credo we have chosen local charity Community Sports Foundation as our Charity of the Year and we want to raise as much as we can for their fantastic new facility, The Nest”
CSF Senior Fundraising & Events Manager Emma Fletcher said “We are really grateful to Credo who have chosen us to benefit from what we see as a really exciting European challenge. This really will inspire people who have an interest in cars but also those Norwich City fans who remember the 1993/1994.”

linocuts, photography of the local area and even some original paintings, all created and donated by local artists.
Vicky Etheridge, Manage of Discover King’s Lynn, says:
“We have been fortunate enough to receive many generous artwork donations from local creatives and we’re really looking forward to showcasing these at the Art of Giving event on
the 15th November. We hope the event will bring people together to support a much-needed local charity during one of their busiest times. Do come along and make an exchange!”
