For far too long, there’s been a misconception that creativity and performance are at odds with one another. But research from WARC and Cannes Lions tells us otherwise, showing that the best brands drive customer acquisition, engagement, loyalty, and retention by leveraging award-winning, data-driven creative campaigns.

To meet the growing demand for creative customer experiences and to help brands bring great ideas to life through technology, Braze launched the 427° Innovation Lab on April 27, 2023.

427° is literally the point at which metal melts and two seemingly impenetrable, totally disjointed objects form something greater than the sum of its parts.

At Braze, 427° is the place where technology is fused with creativity to create the impossibly awesome and forge unbreakable bonds between brands and fans.
