The team established a bold, contemporary visual identity for Social Media Week, repositioning the event to better meet its audience. By elevating how the brand showed up across every channel, we reinforced its perceived value, driving a significant lift in conversions and contributing to over $1M in ticket sales while doubling paid registrations. Delivered at scale by our three-person team under my leadership, producing nearly 1,000 assets across platforms.
