The Brief
As the Science Centre Board (SCB) works to nurture interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) through enjoyable experiences, the challenge was to keep it relevant and exciting for Singaporean audiences of all ages, from youths and young parents to families and tourists. In particular, we needed to reconnect with youths who are increasingly drawn to gaming and online content.
The Formula to Make STEM Fun
As SCB’s agency-of-record, we managed the social media channels for Science Centre Singapore (SCS) and KidsSTOP™, developing content that brought their programmes, events and experiences to life on Facebook and Instagram. We gave audiences more reasons to discover what’s happening at the Centres, from showcasing new programmes and experiences, to putting a fresh spin on evergreen exhibitions and exhibits through social-first formats. We also created content that encouraged participation and conversation, while bringing key events such as UNTAME online.
From Online Content to Centre Visits
Our efforts helped grow followers and engagement rates across SCS and KidsSTOP™’s social channels, while turning online interest into action by driving ticket sales and footfall to the Centres. More importantly, by bringing STEM into the formats that audiences already enjoy, we turned curiosity on social media into a reason to visit, explore and discover.
