From the studio to the Front Row. 🔥

A massive congratulations to our very own Kezia Gamedze, who has been selected as one of only 15 delegates for the IAB South Africa Front Row 2026 programme.

Front Row was created to give South Africa's brightest emerging marketing and creative talent access to the people, platforms and opportunities shaping the future of the industry.

In other words? She's officially one to watch. 👏

This Women's Month, we're celebrating a young creative who's proving that talent, hard work and bold ideas can take you anywhere.

You've earned your seat, Kezia. ✨💜

Lights. Camera. Across!

We recently hit the road to bring the new Suzuki Across TV commercial to life.

From early call times to big creative thinking and plenty of behind-the-scenes hustle, our Penquinites were there every step of the journey. Thank you to Suzuki SA for trusting us to help tell this story and bring the Across to the screen.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make it happen.

Yesterday, our HR Director, Annemie Burger, joined 702 CapeTalk to unpack a topic many of us are feeling right now - mid-year fatigue.

From recognising the signs of burnout to finding small, intentional ways to reset, Annemie shared practical insight into how employees can protect their wellbeing while still showing up with purpose for the second half of the year.

When times get tough, the instinct is to cut back.
The brands that keep investing in their future are often the ones that come out stronger on the other side.

Turns out, it's never just about the years.
How long have you been at your company?
