A Major Global Event

And All Eyes Are Watching...

A sporting event that lasts over two weeks, the marketing goal was to reach New Yorkers, wherever they may be, and create a connection with their hometown tournament.

Branded kiosks at the USTA Tennis Center site brought lots of cardmember benefits: free play by play over ear radios, a Milton Glaser designed event poster, express entry/exit for cardmembers, all added up to an unprecedented US Open experience.

In addition, over 25 video interviews were shot, produced and distributed online and at Arthur Ashe Stadium, bringing more people closer to the personal side of this infamous sporting event and it's storied history.

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week

New York City

Considered the fashion kick-off event of the year, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is an ultra high profile event, attracting top fashion names, as well as rising stars, to show their creativity and vision to a who's who's list of trendsetters and cultural elite.

The creative challenge was to provide high-value cardmembers with unprecedented access to this industry-only event. We created the Amex Skybox, which allowed exclusive viewing of the runway shows from a private lounge,  overseeing the venue and all the action.

Collaborating with design extraordinaire Jonathan Adler, the only one of its kind Skybox delivered to overdeliver and satisfy the most demanding cardmembers expectations.

Opening Global Doors Forum

Shanghai Shi, China

Before China arrived on the world stage, it was a much more closed society, Henry Kissinger changed that, arranging the infamous visit by then-President Nixon to start opening the doors of China and it's engagement with the outside world.

Mr. Kissinger is revered in China as a person of profound respect for helping China start its journey of opening up to the Western world. Having Mr. Kissinger talk with China's top business leaders in an open dialogue forum was a highly desirable ticket with China's business elite.

The challenge to the project was designing a venue experience at Shanghai's most infamous skyscraper, The Shanghai World Financial Center, that held to the high expectations of American Express and the VIP attendees.
