HSBC Canada Banks on Open-Mindedness in Social Initiative
It pays to keep an open mind. That’s the message HSBC Bank Canada is focusing on as part of a new advertising platform scheduled to launch later this month. As an International bank in over 64 countries, HSBC knows first-hand that diverse perspectives can lead to prosperity. And right now, a little open-mindedness could make a world of difference.
To demonstrate this belief, the bank has created a small icon with a big message. Tomorrow, on World Emoji Day, HSBC is partnering with Twitter in the creation of a new custom emoji which will appear anytime the hashtag #OpenMinds is Tweeted.
The hope is that the emoji - which will be active for four weeks - will act as a reminder on social media that, while the views shared by others may be different than your own, it doesn’t mean they don’t have their own merit.
The campaign is spearheaded by Wunderman Thompson Canada with media being handled by Touché.
