Creative agency AW launches new events and activations division AW/Experiences
Independent creative agency AW has launched AW/Experiences (AWE), a new division created to meet the growing need for brands and clients to deliver events and activations that act as an extension of their creative and brand strategy, not just an afterthought.
Working alongside AW, AWE strengthens the agency’s position as a true end-to-end partner. From brand and campaign strategy and creative to the execution of experiences and activations, AW is uniquely placed to not only build powerful brand stories but bring them to life in unforgettable moments.
AWE was born from a simple belief: brands can’t just live on screens. Having already delivered headline-making activations for brands like the NBA, AWE now adds Mastercard Priceless Experiences to its roster.
In partnership with Mastercard, AWE has already rolled out a calendar of Priceless Experiences, from elevated dining to live sport entertainment and concerts. In just three months, the team delivered more than 15 events across Australia and New Zealand. Each brought to life in an iconic venue, no two experiences were the same.
Says Bram Williams, founder, AW: “As an old-school strategist, there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing strategy come alive beyond PowerPoint slides – brought to life in experiences that people can feel, remember, and share.”
Says Karina D’Ambrosio (pictured above), Senior Events Manager of AWE: “We’re so excited to see what’s ahead for AWE and to bring even more incredible experiences to life. For us, building brand awareness and loyalty goes far beyond scrolling thumbs. It’s seen, felt, heard and touched. That’s the real magic, and that’s what we’re here to deliver.”
“Working with AWE has been a fantastic experience,” says Ankit Dhanvijay, Associate Managing Consultant at Mastercard. “The team consistently brings creativity, precision, and a deep understanding of brand and audience to every engagement. They’ve been instrumental in helping us deliver standout moments through the Mastercard Priceless events, always going above and beyond to ensure every detail is considered and every experience feels truly special. Their collaborative approach and professionalism make them an exceptional partner. I’ve especially appreciated their ability to stay agile under pressure, adapt quickly to changing needs, and maintain a positive, solutions-focused mindset throughout. It’s been a pleasure working with a team that genuinely cares about the impact of every experience they help create.”
