Through global qualitative research we set out to find the highest common denominator across very different cultures, to unite a brand with numerous personalities in Asia alone (Chinese, Malaysian, Vietnamese, North American, European and Australian).
Simultaneously we needed to create a culture for growth in the newly formed merger of APG and Heineken, to support a sustainable strategy into the future.

We identified a unique insight which gave new global meaning to the concept of ‘face’ – the tradition of portraying the ideal image of oneself by conforming to a set of rules and obligations. Set in context of this digital age, our strategy unveiled a modernised understanding of the notion of face and social interactions.
Aligning this with the brand’s unique perspective and history we created an opportunity for Tiger to champion a cause beyond image – one that would elevate the brand to an emotional level with consumers and drive affinity alongside sales.
