The appointment of Value Branded Content follows a regional review over the last few months and will cover all the Middle East and North Africa region.
Value Branded Content was established in 2012 with a set objective to shorten the distance between Advertisers and Consumers. By introducing various creative and innovative approaches to media sales, planning and buying, VBC managed to create its own model for meeting client objectives. The core element on which VBC built its success, is nothing else but Content. Currently, VBC holds a portfolio of clients spread across the Middle East and North Africa and operating across different industries.
Raja Halabi, Partner at Value Branded Content said “Branded Content is at the heart of our business. It was therefore a natural next step in our evolution to establish a strong partnership with National Geographic Abu Dhabi as well as National Geographic Kids – who are pioneers in original and world-class content. Since the inception of National Geographic Abu Dhabi in 2009, we have been strong believers in its mission, building on a global leading brand with a unique vision. Joining our sales forces at VBC with the exciting content offered by NGAD and NGK will be nothing short of a guaranteed success that will benefit advertisers the most”.
