IMAGINE LA SUITE

What IMAGINE LA SUITE does

Imagine la Suite is a French full-service communication agency headquartered in Lyon (35 Bis rue Marc Bloch, 69007), serving enterprise and mid-market brands with integrated marketing, brand strategy, shopper activation, audiovisual production, digital services, and innovation-technology experiences. Its core offering is organized into five service pillars — Brand Strategy, Shopper Marketing, Audiovisual Production, Digital Services, and Innovation Technologies (VR/AR/AI) — delivered under its proprietary Mixed Culture® methodology, a registered trademark that the agency describes as an interdisciplinary creative process combining collective intelligence across disciplines and generations. The agency operates on a project-based professional services model, quoting custom engagements for each client and producing 100% of work in-house.

The agency's underlying technical and creative infrastructure includes nearly 50 multidisciplinary talents working across more than 750 m² of facilities that house a photo studio, editing rooms, and a dedicated VR production space — enabling integrated delivery of brand strategy, content production, digital builds, and immersive experiences without external production vendors. Its client base includes Babolat, Carlsberg Group (multi-brand: Carlsberg, Skoll, 1664, Kronenbourg), Bridgestone, Firestone, Jägermeister, Aéroports de Lyon, Banque Populaire Loire et Lyonnais, NOAHO, and the Arty Farty association (Nuits sonores festival). Notable engagements include a 10+ year Carlsberg relationship, Jägermeister's 2013 French market entry, Bridgestone's Solutrans 2015 and 2017 trade-show presences (the 2015 edition featuring Oculus Rift VR), and the European Firestone Music Tour. The agency claims recognition at advertising awards in Cannes, London, and New York.

Imagine la Suite was formed through the merger of four predecessor agencies — A Suivre (advertising), e-magineurs (digital), Lieux Publics (street marketing), and Oscar (real estate communication) — consolidating those capabilities under the Mixed Culture® umbrella. The agency operates primarily in France with selective European reach (e.g., Firestone's multi-country festival tour), targets enterprise marketing buyers directly through a sales-led B2B motion, and does not disclose pricing, revenue, funding, or ownership structure. No parent company, institutional investors, or active funding rounds are referenced in the available data, and the company is privately held.
