What is Brandland?
Who is Brandland for?
Brandland serves two key audiences.
Branding and creative professionals
Brandland is for the creative people and companies that work in the world of branding. From freelancers to agencies and from students to supply chain. If you create work for brands in any way, shape or form, Brandland is the place to be. Make your mark.
Brands
From scrappy start-ups to established corporates and from not-for-profits to heritage brands. If you own a brand, manage a brand or work for a brand-led organisation then Brandland will almost certainly provide a useful and engaging resource to you and your career.
Our Mission
We commit to five areas of impact, to the benefit of our community and our economy.
1. To connect
We want to get people, businesses and ideas together, to accelerate the development of Norwich’s branding cluster, and to pool creativity in a way that helps create new brands with the potential for national or international impact.
2. To celebrate
We want to raise support and raise the sights of the local branding community, raising standards by sharing and celebrating great work
3. To promote
We want to attract new talent to Norwich by putting the city on the map as a place where great branding happens, and speaking with a collective voice to policy makers, making the case that we can deliver a return on investment as great as any of the UK’s other creative clusters.
4. To nurture
We want to find, develop and retain the best people who are working – or would like to work in – branding, encouraging new talent and increasing or encouraging diversity via building effective relationships with local businesses, agencies, freelancers and schools.
5. To lead
We want to join forces with other regional clusters, driving innovation and advancing best practice by researching and sharing better ways to do branding – both for people and for the planet.
