“Today’s most effective marketing strategy discussions start with an inclusive mindset – and with an operational view – not just theoretical – that cultural relevancy is an imperative,” said Karina Dobarro, EVP, Managing Partner, Multicultural at Horizon Media.

Addressing the need to leverage a data-driven approach to align cultural imperatives with a brand’s marketing and business priorities, we developed the idea and overarching purpose of eMbrace and enlisted Nielsen (NYSE: NLSN) to develop the software and data solution.

Collaboration includes expanded respondent pool to produce plans that better serve diverse audiences.

Over the past 4 weeks, Horizon volunteers have been working closely with Newark, NJ TEAL High school students as ambassadors through a program called Skilz, led by founder Gary Bloore. Our volunteers mentored students through the process of finalizing and pitching PSA’s to inform their peers of the very real dangers of the opioid epidemic. Thank you to our Horizon Skilz Ambassadors – Annie Lillquist, Hannah Wiseman, Stephany Oparka, Verónica Grech, Zack Classie and Karen Hunt who judged the students’ pitches and volunteered their time for such an important cause. We are excited to see where the students take the winning PSA!
