INVNT, the global brand storytelling agency, celebrates two years of ground-breaking growth, industry-defining projects, and impactful brand narratives. As a female-majority organisation, INVNT stands out in the industry for its leadership team, which is redefining how brands engage audiences worldwide. In the EMEA region, that vision comes to life under the leadership of Managing Director Claudia Stephenson, where innovation, inclusivity, and culture-led narrative creation drive impact across borders.

INVNT collaborates with global brands like Samsung, Formula E, PepsiCo, and Hitachi Vantara to create work that shapes culture, sparks conversation, and builds a lasting legacy. Brand storytelling becomes a catalyst for global impact through these partnerships. The EMEA team has successfully delivered both local and global projects, including immersive experiential programs at NVIDIA’s GTC for Hitachi, CES 2025 for Hitachi Digital, and the MotoGP Motul Solidarity Grand Prix. Another standout example of their work is the Galaxy Unpacked Experience, featuring K-pop band BTS, which took over central London for three weeks, showcasing Samsung's latest innovations and engaging thousands of attendees.

Building on its momentum, INVNT’s EMEA team has secured major new partnerships with brands such as Meta and ABB, as well as re-engaging with long-standing clients like Formula E and PepsiCo for upcoming high-profile projects. INVNT is gearing up to launch Formula E’s Fan Experience in Monaco this May, marking a bold new chapter in motorsport and fan engagement.

With a growing roster of ambitious challenger brands, the team is set to bring bold, high-impact experiences to life.

Their ability to fuse strategic thinking with bold, creative execution consistently elevates every project we collaborate on. INVNT isn't just an agency, they're an extension of our team, a true partner who understands our vision and brings it to life in ways that continue to inspire and deliver impact."

INVNT operates with a bold mission: to put a brand on the moon, an ethos that fuels collaborations like the launch of Mad Dog Jones’ digital art collection aboard the International Space Station. This ambitious vision drives the agency to collaborate with brands locally and globally aiming to make a significant cultural impact and create history.

"The future of brand storytelling lies not just in creativity, but in conscience, connection, and cultural relevance. At INVNT, we don’t just respond to the world - we shape it. Our growth reflects a belief that bold ideas, diverse leadership, and technology-led experiences can spark meaningful change. In a time when audiences crave authenticity and impact, we’re demonstrating that brands, guided by purpose and imagination, have the power to leave a legacy far beyond the moment."

At INVNT, both globally and here in EMEA, we don’t just talk about inclusivity - we operationalise it. When you empower people from all walks of life to lead, create, and challenge the status quo, you don’t just tell better stories - you shape culture. That’s the future of brand storytelling.”

Impact Work

With Stephenson at the helm, the agency has long supported initiatives that use creativity to drive real-world impact.
