We’ve been on a mission with Walmart to shout out Black ingenuity and entrepreneurship all summer and beyond 📢 Nearly 50% of Black-owned businesses are discovered through word of mouth, so we took Walmart Black & Unlimited: The Shoutout on the road – helping amp up support and visibility for Black-led businesses and creators across the country. Our first mobile stop was at Broccoli City, a two-day festival in DC that celebrates music, culture, and community. This year’s event hosted 50,000+ people, and we greeted guests right as they entered with a countertop design bar offering festival goers the opportunity to customize merch for their favorite Black-owned businesses featuring designs by Black artists Chindo Nkenke-Smith and Ceej Vega. We shouted out Black brand founders including Melissa Butler of The Lip Bar Inc., Denise Woodard of Partake Foods, and Shontay Lundy of Black Girl Sunscreen. Combined with giveaways from Black Girl Sunscreen, UNINTERRUPTED The Shop, and KAZMALEJE, the Shoutout was all about spreading the love, proving that personal recommendations hold untapped power. Next, we popped up at Artscape in Baltimore, where legends Chaka Khan and Sheila E., topped the bill, then headed back to Washington, D.C. for the Sai Summer Cookout, with free merch. Catch us at the Detroit Jazz Festival this weekend, where we're pulling up next. You can check out our tour stops here → https://lnkd.in/g2Gimdun

✨ Sponsor Spotlight ✨ Meet Nikita Malhotra, CFO/COO at Giant Spoon How has being Asian affected your career? Being Asian has dramatically impacted my career. As a child of immigrant parents, it drove my work ethic and need to succeed. I lead with respect and always listen first, ensuring I have all the inputs before deciding. What advice do you have for Asians in the Advertising industry? Always be open to learning and trying new things. Even if not in your job description, helping a team member or solving a problem is a great opportunity to expand your skills. Also, it's okay if every room you walk into doesn't look like you. Embrace your differences; your point of view matters. Can you tell us more about your career journey? I've spent nearly 20 years working across the marketing and advertising spectrum. I'm the CFO/COO of Giant Spoon, an integrated, independent agency, and a Partner and Chief Financial and Commercial Officer at Deep Blue Sports + Entertainment. Before joining Giant Spoon and Deep Blue, I was the CFO of BBH North America, part of the Publicis Groupe Network, where I oversaw financial planning, strategy, and commercial negotiations. #monthlyspotlight #apicommunity

The biggest threat to creativity isn’t technology, it’s “playing it safe.” This year at Fast Company Innovation Festival, our CCO Ian Grody and ECD Monica Herman are pulling back the curtain on our creative process to show you how to craft, pitch, sell, and launch bolder work that has a bigger impact for brands. Sign up for our session on Tuesday, September 17 here 👉 https://lnkd.in/dKTb7ctR

This summer, we created one of our most elaborate brand universes yet for HBO Max. To get fans ready for Season 2 of House of the Dragon, we mixed CG content with IRL takeovers, partnering with iconic institutions across NYC, rallying the world to “Raise Your Banner” for the Targaryen civil war brewing in Westeros. Our fearless ECD Monica Herman sat down with LBBonline - Little Black Book to get behind the work and into our global, mind-bending, integrated campaign that took the world by storm. 🐉 Check it out 👉 https://lnkd.in/g9kxxeqX

We’re going all out for SpongeBob SquarePants’ 25th Anniversary 🍍 with a year-long, global creative platform that focuses on spreading radical positivity around the world. Built in partnership with Nickelodeon and Paramount+, “Like A Sponge” encompasses a variety of international activations, content, and partnerships, brought to life with creators and fans and united by the idea of living like SpongeBob — where the right perspective can make the mundane magical. For our first IRL activation, we’re showing up at San Diego Comic-Con with SpongeBob’s ✨Fountain of Positivity,✨ a head-turning, joy-inducing waaaaater fountain that keeps fans hydrated without the need for single-use polluting plastic. A bright yellow beacon on the grounds of #SDCC, our functional water fountain will be complete with Sponge-tastic splash zones and memorable photo moments with your favorite Bikini Bottom characters. “‘Like a Sponge’ is all about seeing the world through Sponge-colored glasses. Bottling that can-do, nothing’s impossible spirit and finding every yay in every day,” said Ian Grody, Chief Creative Officer of Giant Spoon. “We’ve never needed it, and him, more.” SpongeBob’s Fountain of Positivity is located in front of the Omni Hotel from Thursday, July 25 through Saturday, July 27 from 9:30am to 7:00pm, and Sunday, July 28 11:00am to 4:00pm.
