Reach is an industry-leading programme focusing on supporting and growing ethnic businesses through the Power of the Public Screen. It also supports established brands in evolving their messaging and targeting to engage diverse communities better and improve inclusivity in their planning and communications.
Our mission is to increase Black, Asian, and Multi-Ethnic representation in Out-of-Home advertising through effective and inclusive planning and messaging.
As Out-of-Home is the most democratic, inclusive and public channel, it plays a unique role in removing barriers, delivering inclusivity and influencing and inspiring all communities through the power of targeting, location and messaging. And at a time when consumer trust in advertising is declining, Out-of-Home remains a trusted medium that minority ethnic groups view as a community-orientated channel.
So if you’re looking to amplify your brand by opening up a dialogue with lucrative and vibrant ethnic audiences, our screens deliver a pathway to engage all your customer segments.
Delivering Reach in 3 critical areas
Partnering with like-minded organisations
We’re proud to be working with two key partners that share our ethos and are committed to ensuring diversity and equality in business.
Google for Startups Black Founders Fund tackles racial inequality in venture capital funding by offering cash awards and an acceleration programme encompassing training, workshops, mentoring and access to a community of fellow founders. Together we launched an initiative focused on innovative, diverse founders. Four recipients of the Black Founder Fund were awarded an Out-of-Home media prize to promote their businesses.
MSDUK works with businesses to deliver more diverse and inclusive supply chains, helping them become more competitive, agile and profitable. JCDecaux is a corporate member, and through our relationship, we’re contributing an Out-of-Home campaign prize as part of its Innovation Challenge. We’re also mentoring ethnic minority startups on its Accelerator programme, and in line with MDSDUK’s mission, we’re evolving our procurement approach to drive greater diversity in our supply chain.
