IdeateLabs unveils fashion factory’s transformative branded campaign
Mumbai: IdeateLabs, one of India’s digital-first marketing solutions providers, has conceptualised and created a digital campaign for the ‘Unbranded to Branded’ Exchange Festival for Fashion Factory, a division of Reliance Retail. The campaign encourages customers to exchange their old clothes and shoes for a value of up to Rs 400 and get an additional discount of up to 50 per cent on new, branded clothes.
The campaign is led by two digital films that playfully use “ex” to reveal the exchange offer in different scenarios. The campaign idea stays true to the DNA of Fashion Factory, of bringing branded fashion to all at the most affordable rates.
Unbranded to Branded festival started at the beginning of this month and ends on 25 June 2023, and is promoted through a variety of digital channels, including social media. The target audience for the campaign includes young fashion enthusiasts, sustainability advocates, budget-conscious shoppers, fashion innovators, and early adopters.
“We are excited to partner with Fashion Factory in this fun campaign,” said IdeateLabs CCO Raman R.S. Minhas. “The U2B campaign is a great property that powers Fashion Factory to reach a wide audience and drive sales. We needed that balance of engaging content and offer push, which happened when the team hit upon the creative device of “ex”. We believe the campaign will resonate with the audience and further establish Fashion Factory as India’s leading value fashion retailer”.

KKR sixes to power EV charger rollout under VIDA campaign
Cricket meets clean mobility as big hits spark India’s charging growth
NEW DELHI: VIDA, the electric mobility arm of Hero MotoCorp, has teamed up with Kolkata Knight Riders to launch a campaign that turns cricketing flair into real-world impact.
Titled ‘6 for 6’, the initiative promises to install a 6kW fast EV charger for every six hit by KKR during the ongoing Indian Premier League season. The idea is simple but powerful, as each big hit on the field contributes directly to expanding India’s fast-charging infrastructure.
The campaign builds on VIDA’s growing network, which already spans over 5,300 fast-charging points across more than 430 cities. With EV adoption gaining pace, the brand is using cricket’s mass appeal to accelerate both awareness and infrastructure growth.
Explaining the thinking behind the move, Hero MotoCorp emerging mobility business unit chief business officer Kausalya Nandakumar said, “Cricket has an incredible ability to unite and inspire millions across the country. With the ‘6 for 6’ campaign, we are turning every big hit on the field into a step towards a cleaner and a more accessible mobility future.”
She added that VIDA’s expanding fast-charging network and removable battery technology are designed to make EV ownership more convenient and practical for everyday users.
From the franchise’s side, the campaign is also about giving on-field moments a larger purpose. Kolkata Knight Riders chief executive officer Venky Mysore said, “The ‘6 for 6’ campaign exemplifies the potential of sport as a platform for meaningful, real-world impact. By linking every six to the expansion of EV charging infrastructure, this partnership transforms fan excitement into tangible progress.”
As part of the rollout, VIDA has introduced co-branded charging stations in KKR’s signature colours, with a flagship installation unveiled alongside team players. The chargers are designed for quick top-ups, powering VIDA scooters from zero to 80 percent in about an hour, while also being positioned along key highways to support longer journeys.
The initiative also taps into VIDA’s removable battery system, which allows users to charge using standard household plug points, adding flexibility to the charging ecosystem.
By blending the thrill of cricket with the urgency of clean mobility, VIDA and KKR have found a neat way to make every six count twice, once on the scoreboard and again on India’s road to an electric future.
