  • ITC driving efforts to build purpose-led brands: Sanjiv Puri

    ITC driving efforts to build purpose-led brands: Sanjiv Puri

    Mumbai: ITC believes that brands must serve a larger societal purpose and leverage the substantial market interventions to positively influence social change. This belief drives our efforts to build purpose-led brands. Several of ITC’s brands lead purposeful initiatives in areas that can make a meaningful difference. The ‘Mangaldeep’ brand is empanelling visually impaired persons as fragrance testers, fostering a life of dignity and hope. ‘Fiama’ espouses the cause of addressing mental health issues. ‘Vivel’ champions women’s empowerment. The ‘Savlon Swasth India’ programme which orchestrates hygiene behaviour, has covered over 8,000 schools reaching out to over 2 million students. ‘Classmate All Rounder’ programme aims at holistic skill development, covering over 3,00,000 school students. ‘YiPPee!’s Terra programme upcycles post-consumer plastic wrapper waste into attractive laptop sleeves, tote bags and so on.

    ITC combines agile competitiveness with environmental sustainability and livelihood generation

    Corporates have both an economic and a social purpose. Hence, the path to future progress necessitates business strategies that not only address such uncertainties but also the underlying fault-lines of social inequity and environmental threats. This realisation led ITC to embrace a paradigm of responsible competitiveness, that combines agile competitiveness with environmental sustainability and livelihood generation.

    ITC continues its stellar contribution to environmental and social capital as we complete 20 years of sustainability reporting. You will draw immense pride that 12 of your company’s hotels and the data centre “ITC Sankhya” became the first in the world to be certified LEED Zero Carbon, with two hotels also receiving the LEED Zero Water distinction. ITC’s businesses and value chains today support over six million livelihoods. The footprint of your company’s CSR projects spans over 300 districts in 27 States/Union Territories and reaches out to over 7.5 million people of which nearly 5 million are women. Several more milestones in sustainability performance have been crossed, which I will detail in a subsequent section.  

    ITC’s two-horizon approach – strengthening current livelihoods and building capabilities for better tomorrow

    Over the years, ITC has implemented an impactful Social Investments Programme to catalyse gainful livelihood opportunities for rural communities through a two-horizon approach. Horizon-1 focuses on strengthening current livelihoods of communities, primarily in agriculture and allied sectors whilst Horizon-2 builds capabilities for a better tomorrow. Interventions in areas such as primary education, vocational training, women empowerment, healthcare and others have been progressively scaled up over the years with a transformative impact on the ground.  Pursuing our diversity and inclusion goals, it is heartening that many of our state-of-the-art ICMLs employ a majority of women, ranging between 50-75 per cent of the total workforce.  

    ITC sustained its ‘AA’ rating by MSCI-ESG for the fifth consecutive year reinforcing its leadership amongst peers. It is a matter of pride that our innovative initiatives have enabled ITC to be the only company of its size to achieve the global environmental distinction of being carbon, water and solid waste recycling positive for over 18, 21 and 16 years respectively.

    In today’s context it is evident that any strategy, which is devoid of addressing the growing societal challenges will be outdated, irrelevant and bound to be short-lived. It is for this reason that ITC has made sustainable and inclusive growth the bedrock of its corporate strategy, crafting innovative business models that work towards building economic, environmental and social capital as a unified approach.

  • Guest Article: 2023 ICC World Cup in India offers a prime opportunity for brands

    Guest Article: 2023 ICC World Cup in India offers a prime opportunity for brands

    Mumbai: What will never vanish into obscurity? India’s persistent passion for sports & cricket India is set to host the prestigious ICC ODI World Cup for the first time, commencing on 5 October, bringing excitement to sports fans everywhere. Since the 2019 World Cup broke the previous viewership record with 2.6 billion viewers, the 2023 ICC World Cup is expected to bring in a substantially higher audience and will give marketers a chance to shape their brand value through enriching advertising opportunities.

    Aligning with Diwali, the biggest Indian festival, the ICC Cricket Tournament will open broader avenues for advertisers and digital marketers to showcase their brands to the huge cricket audience.

    Shift of cricket advertising efforts from linear TV to CTV

    For previous cricket matches in India, mobile phones and linear TV were the most critical advertising channels for marketers to build a brand. With the higher penetration of CTV devices, it offers advertisers a route to audiences tuned in on a bigger screen.

    As per the FICCI-EY report, CTVs in India reached to 10 million in 2022 and are predicted to surpass 40 million by 2025. MiTV (Xiaomi TV) and Samsung dominate the market, with 11 per cent and 10 per cent shipments, respectively. Approximately 83 per cent of smart TV owners consume content via the internet, with 84 per cent of households with more than one person watching CTV at home, according to the 2022 CTV report released by MediaSmart.

    Based on BARC reports, 700 million viewers in India watch their sports on smart TVs, with cricket being the frontrunner among various sports. The data from the Interactive Advertising Bureau shows it is estimated that 73 per cent of media buyers and advertisers are shifting their budgets away from linear TV to CTV and OTT. Few CTV players provide an outstream ad solution. The ad will be displayed when the TV is switched on, so users’ focus will not be distracted by the content. Moreover, advertisers can easily track the performance based on the actions the audience takes and how long the video creative is watched.

    The demand for advertisers to promote their campaigns on the big screen surges by 30–40 per cent in the festive season. Major industries like FMCG, auto, e-commerce, fin-tech, and consumer durables are focusing their advertising efforts on CTVs to launch their festive campaigns. During the 2019 World Cup, the topmost consumer electronics companies—Samsung, MiTV, Sony, LG, and Panasonic—reported almost a 100% spike in sales of large-screen TVs compared to the previous year.

    ICC is a critical window for gaming & e-sports industry

    As per KPMG India, the Indian gaming industry is set to reach a revenue of $2.8 billion this year. In Google Playstore India, among Top30 gaming apps in AppAnnie July 2023, 10 per cent of apps are sports-related games. Real money gaming is a key driver for Indian game monetization owing to increasing “willing to pay” users and technological evolution. The average revenue per paying user increased by 11 per cent to reach $20 per year in FY22, with 2 million new paying users being added each month, said BCG 2022.

    During the 2023 IPL, MOCA was tapping into the power of the event and successfully helped Winzo, one of the largest gaming platforms in India, greatly expand its user base, and its revenue saw a two-fold increase compared with a pre-IPL period by cooperating with top OEM App Store and premium in-app traffic suppliers.

    For India, being a cricket-loving nation, the upcoming ICC World Cup opens up tons of opportunities for marketers in the gaming industry to build brand awareness and drive sales. It is an important time window for gaming apps to make maximum revenue, especially in the real money game category, where the ROI is expected to increase and turn positive before and during cricket matches; however, as I see it, the deposit will drop 50–70 per cent once the match ends.

    The first-ever hosting of the ICC in India presents a valuable chance for marketers to capitalise on, especially as it aligns with the festive season when users have additional disposable income to spend. The top priority of the marketers will be to seize users’ attention and elevate engagement with the best performing advertising solutions.

    In conclusion, advertising in the ICC will be a hot deal for all the marketers to leverage; however, it will also not be a cakewalk being a part of this group. With a highly desirable space, naturally, the ad rates during the tournament period being telecasted across all platforms will spike by nearly 30–40 per cent. As per industry news, take OTT as an example: select India-only matches shall cost up to Rs 30 lakh per ten seconds.

    Making the most coveted spot a challenge for marketers to claim. yet not impossible to achieve. Amid the big fanfare of cricket, fan’s enthusiasm & the festive fervor in the air, this is a prime time for digital marketers to take the plunge & hit it out of the ballpark.

    To fully capitalise on the ICC World Cup and elevate brands to new heights, MOCA India vice president Rameshwar Thakur, advises advertisers to strategise media campaigns in advance by pre-booking premium inventory that provides innovative ad formats to showcase brands to a precisely targeted audience at reasonable rates.

    adidas Running global product manager Mili Seiffert said, “We’re always looking at innovative ways to redefine our design processes to bring real benefits to our community – whether they are at the top of the sport, or an everyday runner. While it sounds simple, the ambition to convert weight into forward motion is easier said than done. It’s taken years of testing with athletes of every level to get where we have today. It’s a triumph to innovation, and a testament to our ambition and drive to deliver new running shoe technology.”  

    Additional features of the new SWITCH FWD include a lightweight Continental outsole, which gives runners extra grip in all weather conditions.
