Xi’an is a rapidly-growing metropolis in central China playing a leading role in the country\u2019s Belt and Road Initiative.
\nAs the historical starting point for the ancient Silk Road, Xi\u2019an today sits at the forefront of China\u2019s massive Belt and Road Initiative, making the city poised to serve as an economic, cultural and transportation crossroads for Asia and beyond. But while Xi\u2019an\u2019s ancient history is known to many \u2013 its terracotta warriors are among China\u2019s most famous cultural treasures \u2013 its rapid development as an economic and technology hub is less widely known. This project undertaken by Ogilvy will seek to spread awareness of Xi\u2019an\u2019s multifaceted offerings as a city both ancient and modern, traditional and dynamic.<\/p>\n

The communications project targets a wide range of audiences spanning continents and cultures, but all linked by their key roles in the Belt and Road Initiative. Markets to receive particular focus include North America, Western Europe, Southeast Asia, Central Asia and Africa.<\/p>\n

As Xi\u2019an marches toward hosting the Belt and Road Forum in 2019, Ogilvy will be their partner to ensure that the world better understands the dynamism and opportunities in China\u2019s ancient capital.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very excited to have this opportunity to work with the city of Xi\u2019an to tell their story to the world,\u201d said Scott Kronick, Ogilvy Asia Pacific CEO for Public Relations & Influence. \u201cOgilvy has helped many Chinese brands in their quest to go global; our start-studded team of location branding experts looks forward to doing the same with our partners in Xi\u2019an.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ogilvy was chosen from among a dozen competitors that submitted bids for the project. The candidates spanned a wide range of organizations, including communications agencies, consulting firms and media outlets from China and around the world.<\/p>\n

Joe Zhou, Managing Partner of Ogilvy Beijing led the award-winning global branding of Chengdu in recent years, and Kronick added: \u201cBuilding strong brands for cities and countries is something that we have long excelled at, with numerous cases from around the world showing our strong expertise in this field. Going up against competitors from different sectors in the bidding process, this win goes to show that despite today\u2019s rapidly-changing communications landscape, Ogilvy\u2019s global network and strong track record means we are best equipped to design impactful strategies and tell engaging stories that resonate around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
