Power is not wielded from corner offices. Success no longer wears only pin stripes. Nor does it just sit in high rises of glass and chrome. The latest Ballantine’s communication raises a toast to the entrepreneurial spirit of this new breed who are redefining the codes of corporate success. Unorthodox, intrepid and bold in its very visual language, the latest campaign by Ballantine’s aims to acknowledge their audacious spirit with aspirational authenticity.

The new Ballantine’s campaign is an ode to these ‘Uns’ – symbols of the fearless new corporate tribe. So there is no one hero in the film. The protagonists are many, diverse and represent corporate success across unconventional walks of life. Fearless, bold and not disheartened by temporary glitches, their strength lies in their uniqueness. They’re holding their ground in un-stereotypical ways; scripting success in unimagined fields and professions.

There is no censorship and no problems in Russia. At least, that’s what they say officially in mass media. There is no other opinion in Russia, since TV Rain – the country’s only independent TV-channel – was taken off air by all satellite and cable providers because of an order from ‘above’. TV Rain, however, hasn’t stopped covering the real state of affairs in Russia. Now one can get an access to truth only through paid subscriptions. In 2015 Vladimir Putin publicly declared to ease the censorship burden. He did it again in 2016 and 2017 during his annual press conferences. But the miracle did not happen. A week before the regular press conference we launched ‘Putin turns on the Rain’.Everyone could get access to TV Rains’s broadcast for 24 hours access for free if they demonstrated the president’s portrait to the web camera.

We know that without support with social learning, able children with ASD are left anxious, stressed and at risk of mental health issues later in life.

Apê Kids, a company that develops playful and functional objects for children, has created Offline Toys, a line of toys where, in order to make the game even more fun, it is necessary to couple the parents’ smartphones with an app developed for this end. The initiative aims to avoid the harmful custom of parents to use the cell phone during the moment of play with their children. Research from US universities shows that excessive use of mobile phones by parents can negatively influence children’s brain development. Interviews with 170 families, led by scholars at the University of Michigan and Illinois State University, show that by interrupting family times to check messages or surf social networks, parents can contribute to problems such as hyperactivity in children.

The line of toys Offline Toys arrives in the Brazilian market with three models in wood: car, stove and human body, and with four possibilities of fit for the cellular devices. With NFC technology, the app recognizes the toy where it is docked and blocks receiving notifications on the phone while playing. Parents and children will be able to have fun, without interruption, with more than 120 interactions, like triggering the siren of a police car, cooking different foods and getting to know the human body, among others.
