Event visual identity and visual design production, involving graphic design, motion design and layout design across all touchpoints for Creative Leap: Creativity as a Competitive Advantage in Business.

The research outcomes demonstrate that creativity-promoting leadership is a crucial component of financial success, proving that companies with a culture of creativity are more profitable.
