On November 7, the ARF Creative Council held an immersive event exploring the powerful role of sound in branding. At this event, the Council unveiled its thoroughly-researched white paper on sonic branding. Members of the Council provided a preview of the white paper. They covered what sonic branding is, how it has evolved, how it works at a neurological level, how leading brands have successfully used sound to build and reinforce brand memories, and how brands can get started on their sonic branding. Practitioners of sonic branding revealed how they go about creating sonic signatures and even played a possible sonic signature of the ARF. The event began with a quiz in which 10 audio clips were played and the audience was asked to identify the brand associated with each sound.
