Campaign Excellence: Award-Winning Work
The recent TopFICE recognition as the Healthcare Agency -India is based on Brandcare’s performance in the world’s leading international creativity and effectiveness festivals in 2024-25. The ranking evaluates 72 award shows and more than 11000 trophies earned worldwide.
Some recognised campaigns from Brandcare are:
1. Edema Pranaam: Culture Drives Awareness
Brandcare transformed the traditional Indian gesture of pranaam into a powerful screening cue for edema awareness. Pedal edema–commonly dismissed as an age-related condition–can signal early heart risk and requires timely treatment. This campaign for a leading edema brand of Cipla, encourages younger generations to observe these signs when they bend for pranaam, turning a cultural practice into an opportunity for health screening.
2. Drain Edema: Making the Invisible Urgent
A doctor’s desk overflowing with charts, risk scores, and endless medical diagrams. It’s important to break this visual clutter. This campaign leverages a striking and unconventional metaphor–a gumboot filled with water, as a part of the actual foot. The image creatively brings the science of edema to life, illustrating the accumulation of excess fluid in the body in a way that is instantly relatable.
Supported by in-clinic materials and edema risk scores, the campaign reframed pedal edema.
3. Gram Health Locket: Wearable Health Records for Tribal Communities
In partnership with Keshav Srushtee, Brandcare developed a secured, digitized wearable health device for tribal communities in Western India.
The Gram Health Locket, designed with local tribal art sensibilities, has reached 31 tribal villages and touched 11,000 families, receiving acclaim at the African National Rural Development Organization.
