A force for good

Although they may not realise it, everyone is affected by brands in some way. Brand publicity often suffers at the hands of anti-globalisation and anti-capitalism activists who consider the effects to be nothing but negative, but the truth is that brands can be a major force for good in today’s world.

In this section we look at how brands affect all our lives - as consumers, in the broader economy and in society.

In December 2008 a study by Westminster Business School was published looking at the contribution of branding to the UK economy and the returns it generates. Titled “Valuing Brands in the UK Economy”, more information on this study is available here.

In January 2009, an exhibition titled "Branding for Britain" was held in the House of Commons to inform parliamentarians about the importance and relevance of brands in the UK today. Featuring new case studies on how branding supports jobs, creates and grows categories and drives exports, downloads of the exhibition panels are available here.
