Thomson Reuters “The Knowledge Effect”— Ogilvy & Mather with Global Leader website<br />
by The Economist<br />
The world is awash with data – 800 exabytes and rising.<br />
Thomson Reuters wanted to show how it helps business<br />
leaders detect the faint signals hidden in big noisy data<br />
sets – and provide tools they need to make better<br />
decisions faster. “The Knowledge Effect” was<br />
introduced during the World Economic Forum to drive<br />
people to a microsite designed to offer deeper<br />
understanding of markets, innovation and business<br />
leadership. One key element was a partnership with<br />
The Economist online forum -- Global Leader's Ideas<br />
Area -- designed to surround the conversation at Davos<br />
with intelligent content, discussion and debate on the<br />
challenges facing Global Leaders today, and the future<br />
of leading in a complex world.<br />

TurboTax is the leader in the tax preparation software<br />
category and was the 8th largest US digital advertiser in Q1<br />
of 2010. (Comscore). Their target audience is consumers<br />
who are open to using tax software, but want to easily<br />
complete their taxes and receive the biggest refund<br />
possible. The challenge was in reaching this audience and<br />
holding their attention for a prolonged period of time.<br />
TurboTax decided to align with an event at the height of tax<br />
season, and became the title sponsor of GRAMMY Live,<br />
an online-only exclusive 3-day live streaming event… all to<br />
unprecedented viewing and interaction results.<br />
