Digital Wallonia| Brand logic
| Strong & unified brand
> nationally

| Deployment logic with
similarities with:
April 2015| New social media
strategy
@awtbe > @digitalwallonia
(...so NO @adnbe,
@agencedunumerique or other
variants)
+ a unique hashtag for every

| Example #1
| Example #2
| Example #3
| Example #4
| Example #5
| Identical strategy on
Change of the page AWTbe
into a static page Agence du
Numérique pointing towards
the Digital Wallonia page
| What's next?
Pursuing communication on the
DW brand logic implies:
| Long-term durability >< one
shot buzz;
| Virality of the communication
based on appropriation and
ambassadorship of the brand by
actors, partners and ordinary
citizens.
| Communication plan for 4 years
starting as from June 2016:
| Identification of campaigns that
can be launched with partners to
promote and deploy the strategy;
| Identification of the virality
channels;
| Design of communication tools
and kits for partners (visuals, texts,
videos, ...).
It's only the beginning!
| Thank you for your attention! :-)
