History
[edit]T Brand Studio was founded in early 2014.[1] In 2015, the studio opened an office in London, with plans to use that office for expansion into the rest of the world, including Asia.[4]
In March 2016, The New York Times bought Santa Monica, California-based Pinterest marketing company HelloSociety for an undisclosed amount, and it was announced that the company would be integrated with T Brand Studio.[5]
In June 2017, T Brand Studio opened its Asian branch in Hong Kong.[6]
Operations
[edit]The studio staff consists of journalists, video producers, technologists, strategists and social media experts.[7] As of October 2015, the group had developed over 100 campaigns for more than 50 different brands.[4] It was reported that almost 20% of The New York Times' digital advertising revenue came from T Brand Studio projects. That was estimated to be $35.7 million in 2014.[4]
