RUN Aotearoa

RUN is a globally awarded advertising and design agency based in Aotearoa New Zealand.

We partner with ambitious organisations to build brands, campaigns and creative platforms that drive real impact. From increasing consideration and engagement, to shifting behaviour and growing market share.

Our work spans brand strategy, brand identity, campaigns, and design systems, delivered with the care and clarity of a senior, hands-on team.

We operate without the layers of a traditional agency, which means sharper thinking, faster turnaround and work that holds together from strategy through to execution.

We’ve worked with organisations including Tourism New Zealand, Auckland Council, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, 2degrees and a range of Pacific tourism and government partners.

What sets RUN apart is the depth of thinking, and real-world knowledge behind our work. As an indigenous Māori-owned agency, we bring a level of cultural intelligence that strengthens how ideas connect, whether that’s essential to the brief, or simply a way to make the work more relevant, distinctive and effective.

We apply the right lens to every project, from pure commercial creative through to culturally grounded campaigns, always led by what will deliver the best outcome.

If you’re looking for work that cuts through, connects authentically with audiences, and stands up commercially, let’s kōrero.
