87. AND EVERYTHING THOSE TWO DIGITS SAY ABOUT THE WORLD.
87seconds is not a name chosen at random. It carries both a cultural conviction and a strong business ambition.
In many Asian cultures, the number 8 symbolizes prosperity, success, and forward momentum. In the West, the number 7 is associated with luck, achievement, and success. Together, 8 and 7 bring two continents and two worldviews together around a single ambition: helping brands succeed everywhere, while respecting every culture. They reflect what the group has always been: a bridge between East and West, between markets, cultures, and audiences.
87seconds is also a unit of time that says everything there is to know about the attention challenge brands face today.
Choosing this name expresses the ambition to go beyond those few seconds, to create content and experiences that make people want to stop, discover, watch, engage, and remember.
It is no longer enough to be seen. Brands must earn more time and more attention: turning a fleeting exposure into emotion, and an interaction into a lasting connection.
This name carries forward the group's founding conviction: Everyone Matters. Every culture, every market, every audience, every platform matters. And so does every second it takes to reach them.
CREATE, DEPLOY, MANAGE: A THREE-PILLAR ORGANIZATION
With this name change, 87seconds is clarifying its organization around three major, complementary areas of expertise, making its offering easier to understand without affecting the identity or independence of its agencies:
- CREATE, which brings together the expertise of 87seconds Creative and Switching-Time in content creation, production, and amplification;
- DEPLOY, which unites Datawords and Wezen around the orchestration, management, and governance of content on an international scale;
- MANAGE, which brings together Vanksen and Whatsquare around visibility, monitoring, digital performance, and conversational experiences.
"We didn't change our name to change our image. We changed our name because we have changed. The group 87seconds represents 27 years of work, culture, and conviction, finally with a name capable of carrying it all." Alexandre Crazover, CEO and Co-Founder of the Group.
