Cultural / Context information for the jury

The UK first lockdown started in March 2020 and society started to reopen on August 1st.

Write a short summary of the ambient work.

The task: Successfully revealing the name of Hyundai’s new electronic brand “IONIQ” in the extraordinary times of the first lockdown. Ensuring maximum awareness for the brand before the line-up campaign. The idea: IONIQ is in charge of turning the world – we show that by letting it set the London Eye back in motion after 4 months of standing still. By transforming the London Eye into a huge “Q” – symbol for IONIQ. The solution: We made London’s most popular attraction Hyundai’s landmark for its electric vision with balloons that lit up as the London Eye started spinning again, forming a huge “Q”. Attracting people’s interest on-location, social media and to the press through a film, print ads and out-of-home. With millions of media impressions and above 14 million views on YouTube alone, IONIQ succeeded in creating the hype around its new solutions for better moving – and living.
