the FIFA World Cup 2026™, TikTok is emerging as one of the most dynamic

and shape the narrative of the game in real time. Just in the beginning of the
year it was announced
that TikTok has become FIFA’s first-ever Preferred Platform, enabling
deeper collaboration and integration, and offering more comprehensive
tournament coverage through original content - cementing its role as the go-to
destination for fans and creators.]]></image:caption>

before construction begins, and often nowhere near a construction site at all.
There’s still a tendency to treat research and design as separate practices. One
produces knowledge, the other produces form. One is slow, analytical, often
invisible; the other is expected to materialize into something immediate and
legible. But the longer I work between academia, practice, and cities like
Beirut, the less convincing that distinction feels. Some of the most urgent design
work I’ve encountered hasn’t begun with a building at all. It began with
observation. With tracing patterns of use, listening to how people adapt to
space under pressure, paying attention to what systems fail to hold and what
emerges in their place. Research, in that sense, is not preparation for
design. It is design.&amp;nbsp;]]></image:caption>

noticed how in the last 30 years, the region has gone from awards scarcity to
an avalanche of opportunities to earn a trophy for our work? One reason for
this is that it’s a steady revenue stream for publishers and other
entrepreneurs who capitalize on the demand for peer recognition, career leg-up
or corporate differentiation. Not only do we have more festivals and other
competitions in which to enter a brand’s work, but we also see a rise in the
number and specialisation of categories. This evolution is driven by the
increasing sophistication and fragmentation of marketing.&amp;nbsp;]]></image:caption>

                                            <image:caption><![CDATA[Abu Dhabi, February 2026: In an oversaturated tourism landscape, where many attractions feel distant from Louvre Abu Dhabi, both geographically and mentally , the challenge was clear: show people exactly what they were missing and guide them there in the most compelling way possible.The solution was as bold as it was elegant. Louvre Abu Dhabi transformed its iconic artworks into a series of striking; bespoke street signs placed across the UAE’s busiest tourist hubs. Art didn’t just invite visitors in, it led them there.Developed in collaboration with Publicis Middle East, the campaign reimagined outdoor billboards as an unexpected, first-of-its-kind cultural wayfinding system. Carefully selected from over 6,000 global masterpieces, each artwork became a directional cue, guiding audiences at every corner and turn — making Louvre Abu Dhabi not just visible, but unmissable.The journey didn’t stop at the city’s streets. The same art-led signs were reinterpreted as wayfinding devices within the museum itself, extending the concept beyond its walls. By bringing artworks from the galleries — and even from the storage collection — into public-facing spaces, the campaign blurred the line between inside and outside. Art accompanied visitors throughout their entire journey, deepening engagement and transforming the path to the museum into a continuous cultural experience.To amplify the impact, the outdoor activation was supported by a fully integrated digital campaign designed to remind audiences why following these directions mattered. From new exhibitions and summer programmes to free entry for children, the campaign highlighted compelling reasons to visit. Leveraging a data-driven approach that combined telco intelligence, high-impact media takeovers, and precise audience targeting, the activation successfully reached high-intent travellers at remarkable scale — turning curiosity into visitation.Aunindo Sen, Executive Creative Director at Publicis, said:“Louvre Abu Dhabi is home to some of the world’s most renowned masterpieces. Yet it’s often overlooked due to flashier entertainment alternatives. This campaign turned an out-of-home execution into an out-of-museum one, showing people what they might be missing while giving them the directions.”Anna Ferris, Marketing Manager at Louvre Abu Dhabi said:“By transforming the lesser-known artworks from our collection into wayfinding, we invited people to follow the art itself towards the museum. Supported by targeted digital advertising, the campaign helped drive summer visits and encouraged deeper engagement with culture.”In a similar spirit, the results spoke for themselves. Within the first week of the campaign, Louvre Abu Dhabi recorded a 37.5% increase in visits compared to the same period in 2024. Online ticket sales also rose significantly year on year, with a 79.9% increase (source: Google Analytics), proving that when art leads the way, the unexpected still has the power to nudge people in the right direction.]]></image:caption>

Yet, signs of revival are emerging. Major international brands like Visa and Johnson’s have returned to the streets, marking a visible comeback after years dominated by local players.In this exclusive interview, Antonio Vincenti, CEO of Pikasso and a key industry leader, reflects on the Out-of-Home (OOH) business today.As Lebanon slowly regains its marketing momentum, the outdoor space may not only bounce back—but evolve into something smarter and more dynamic believes Vincenti.

It has indeed introduced in the Middle East region, during the Ramadan period, and through its agency FP7/DXB, a new version of its iconic red-and-white can. The new red can feature Coke&#039;s signature dynamic ribbon without Coca-Cola naming on it as it is intended to promote open-mindedness and tolerance. The back of the can bears the message: &quot;Labels are for cans, not people.&quot; Along with this, an accompanying video stressing on the idea behind the campaign was released, where six men were shown discussing their lives in a dark room. When the lights came on, preconceptions about each others were completely shattered.]]></image:caption>

There’s a little something quite hard to explain, quite hard to pinpoint&amp;nbsp; that makes their struggle just a bit more bittersweet. Bitter because of the challenges presented by the tough, capricious Lebanese market . Bitter because taking any initiative in this market is an extreme risk and an extreme gamble.&amp;nbsp; Yet sweet because success in said market evokes a magnified sensation of pride and accomplishment. Aiding in bringing the art and science of gaming into the sphere of the Lebanese and Arab markets, Wixel Studios co-founder Reine Abbas is an example of how enough persistence, dedication, and proactivity can create a success story we could all learn from.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;In a talk with ArabAd,&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Abbas&amp;nbsp;explains how gaming can--whether we know it or not--change the world, as she&amp;nbsp;implies that&amp;nbsp;&quot;We are all creators&quot;.]]></image:caption>
