2023 Global Benchmark Report for Offshore Creative Production

As we enter 2023, with the pandemic still fresh in our minds, there has been a further surge in economic uncertainty, resulting in price rises, a drop in consumer spending and high inflation. Businesses and brands around the world are leaning on their marketing, operations and procurement teams, as well as their in-house studios, to explore more commercially effective models to deliver the “content at scale” challenge that all brands are wrestling with. This has resulted in the an inevitable shift towards more flexible, economically viable production models.
