Havas Village Finland

    Our Mission

    The Havas Village is a truly unique proposition – creative, media and health all under one roof. Our philosophy is to work together seamlessly, building teams around our clients’ needs not our own. Our position as a local Havas agency in Finland enables us to help our clients both locally and abroad.

    We operate with one vision, one shared way of working, and under one P&L.

    Our Havas mission: To make a meaningful difference to the brands, the businesses and the lives of the people we work with.

    Our People

    We are a home for collaborators. At a time when the industry has fragmented across specialities and disciplines, we're proud to be truly integrated - physically and philosophically.

    This way, we work faster, smarter and happily.

    Meaningful Brands™

    For the last fifteen years, Havas has been dedicated to understanding and building Meaningful Brands™. Its annual Meaningful Brands™ report is a landmark study of brand value which interrogates new behaviours, shifting cultural dynamics, and priorities for people, businesses and brands in a complex world. The latest study surveyed 91,000 people across 10 global markets, along with 1,300 brands across 42 categories and reveals that:

    72%

    of people surveyed are tired of brands pretending they want to help society when they just want to make money 

    68%

    think the world is going in the wrong direction, at a global level

    71%

    believe brands should be doing more to improve and support their personal health and well-being 

    The role of our Meaningful Brands™ study is to explore these shifts. At their best, meaningful brands win people’s loyalty; they occupy a bigger space in culture; they have a deeper resonance in people’s lives; and they set themselves up for the long-term win. They combine purpose with customer centricity to not just grow, but “Grow Well” - giving back to the people and the planet. In many ways the expectations of brands have never been higher. And we at Havas think that is a good thing.
