Young creatives are looking for spaces to connect beyond their own institutions 🎨👀🎓
That’s the insight behind Liquitex Next Gen, our semester-long ambassador program with Colart. Through hands-on creative experiences, the program connects emerging artists across New York, New Jersey and Philadelphia.
This spring, activity has moved through campuses, cultural venues and local neighbourhoods. From Rutgers Scarlet Arts Festival, to the Observational Portrait Painting Club, Printed Matter, Inc. Art Battle International in Philadelphia and Paint After Dark Sessions across Brooklyn.
Shared across ambassadors’ social channels, these moments have turned hyper-local activity into wider reach across young creative communities. 📲
For Liquitex, showing up for the communities and collaborations shaping young artists’ worlds cements the brand as a lasting supporter of the next generation of creatives. ⭐

Turning UT Austin pink and orange with @gymshark 🩷🧡
This April, we brought the Campus Conditioning Club to The University of Texas at Austin to launch Gymshark’s Conditioning and Interval ranges to a collegiate audience.🤘🏼
Led by local influencer talent, 200+ students from 15 universities came down for the ultimate brand experience day, made up of a 5K run in partnership with @strava , conditioning zones, and giveaways, while student attendees got kitted out in pieces from the new range. 🏃🏽♀️🦈
Stay tuned for more Gymshark updates soon, as we continue to help the brand strengthen its relevance with collegiate audiences… 👀
Feierstarter Global Incentive Trip 2026 🦌🥃🇩🇪
This year’s trip brought together 26 Feierstarters from 13 countries across Wolfenbüttel and Berlin. 🌍
This incentive trip gave these top performing ambassadors the chance to connect, dive deeper into the brand’s heritage, share how the programme operates in their local markets, and celebrate the hard work they have been doing in their respective roles. 💪🏼
With over 500 Feierstarters now active globally, this year’s trip marked a big step forward for the programme.
Last year, 10 Feierstarters from 5 markets came together. This year, that number more than doubled, showing just how quickly the network is expanding and building global momentum. 🌟
@jagermeister 🧡
Over 60% of Gen Z prefer texting over calling.
So what would it take to make them pick up the phone? ⁉️📞
For @deliveroo Students and @wingstopuk , we set out to test that behaviour in real life. 🍗🦘
Our latest campus activation, ‘Do Me A Flavour’, turned that insight into a challenge that put student friendships to the test. 💪🏼
Popping up at the University of Manchester and Leeds Beckett, students stepped into our giant branded phone booth, dialled their most reliable mate and hoped they answered. If they did, Wingstop was coming their way. 🤩
Sounds easy, right?
Well, it turns out the whole “phone a friend” concept isn’t quite second nature to this generation…
Joined by Beta Squad member and Gen Z favourite creator @ajshabeel , take a watch of the wrap up video to watch all the drama unfold 👀

What does NFL fandom look like on a UK university campus? 🏈👀🌟
With a growing appetite for the NFL in the UK, we teamed up with NFL and UNiDAYS to host a watch party for a new wave of Gen Z fans.
From a custom Tailgate Zone with arcade games, to Chicago and Philly-inspired food, exclusive merch drops, and a live viewing of the Chicago Bears vs Philadelphia Eagles, each touchpoint was designed to keep the atmosphere buzzing.
With February and the Super Bowl fast approaching, we’re scaling up our NFL watch party approach to deliver an even bigger, more immersive viewing experience. 💪🏼

10 Years of Raptor: A Decade in the Making ⭐️
Since launching in 2015 as a student marketing agency, Raptor has evolved significantly. Today, we are a global youth marketing agency celebrating ten years of service.
To celebrate this milestone, we wanted to reflect on the breadth of what we’ve built - however, ten years of work can’t be captured in words alone…
That challenge is exactly why we created our latest showreel, bringing those moments to life in their truest form.
To everyone who’s been part of the journey so far, thank you.
Here’s to what’s next. 🖤🤍
