This course won’t teach students how to become copywriters, creative directors or brand strategists. Rather, it will teach how to develop a brand in collaboration with the right creative people. They will learn what makes a good copywriter, creative director or brand strategist for their business, so they can get the best team together right from the start.

Successful, leading brands always have a bespoke, crystal clear identity and speak with a coherent voice that resonates directly with the brand’s desired audience. That’s why we emphasise recognising good creative – to help young entrepreneurs avoid a common pitfall for tech startups: launching with haphazard branding and tone of voice. Start-up spirit isn’t to be mistaken for “a quick fix”, leading only to early deaths of great ideas.
