UPRISING

SVEN Uprising

In our 17th year, we embrace the spirit of peak teenage rebellion in an era where overlapping polycrises are the norm.

With our youth-coded and AI engines, we reclaim soft power to rise above the unexpected and redefine agency norms to reshape what being Digital-1st means to us.

Our Story

        We trendflip generic upskilling opportunities and limited career progression. Personalized growth paths are there to refine current skills, introduce new ones, and enable people to learn more about what they can do.

01 Trendflip

The Comeback Program

At SVEN, inclusion extends towards those looking to dive back in to their careers. This program is all about helping them land a successful comeback with the right tools and peer support.

02 Trendflip

The Certification Path

Your role shouldn't limit your upskilling opportunities. Our Certification Path is an all-inclusive program that allows team members to forge new skills and craft their own successes.

03 Trendflip

The Curiosity Program

Whether it's life, soft, or technical skills, our Curiosity Program allows team members to pursue learning at their own pace and without pressure.

04 Trendflip

The Collab Program

Got something to share? Our Collab Program empowers specialists of all kinds to lead learning sessions not limited to their own team!

        Chillfluence is all about protecting our peace, maintaining balance, and championing rest. We treat wellness as an essential, not an extra—allowing us to create sustainably and on our own terms.

01 Chillfluence

Lifestyle Leaves

Whether it's for grandparents, friends, or just wanting to give back to the community, we've got five lifestyle leaves for anyone to use any time.

02 Chillfluence

Breather Breaks

Positioned at the last Friday of every month, Breather Breaks are our way of making sure everyone gets to slow down before moving into the next month.

03 Chillfluence

In the Drafts

We held a guided journaling session where agency members got to let loose and release their anxieties on paper.

04 Chillfluence

Nailed It!

This all-gender self-care class taught the basics of nail and hand care. Participants also got to design their nails their way!

The brands I work with are often cautious, rarely venturing outside their comfort zone. With the support of SVEN and the team's right social mindset, we successfully launched out-of-the-box social content for a traditionally-minded client. The results were clear: a new stream of interest, a broader audience, and a social media presence that's now resonating with younger generations.

Aish D. -Sr. Brand Strategist

Agency life will always be challenging but the culture here makes it lighter and helps me focus more on the now. Breather breaks, fun calls, little self-care reminders and prompts from time to time help ease the pressure. I’m still pushed to grow and learn everyday but I also get to appreciate that rest and getting to play around are also part of the work we do.

Charvin S. -Sr. Compliance Partner

SVEN lets us be our true selves in everything that we do. Whether it's how we work, talk to each other, or the initiatives and experiences we have, SVEN creates a space for us to freely express who we are and our ideas without judgment. This kind of environment pushes us to think differently, speak up freely, and take on work with fresh perspectives. By staying real and open, we're able to challenge and break norms together.

James J. -Agency Equity & Experience Strategist

        While others fixate on traditional milestones, we spotlight the under-recognized minorstones that deserve to be celebrated in our everyday work.

01 Minorstones

Fresh Friday Shoutouts

Our bi-monthly online "radio" sesh allows everyone to start their Friday mornings at lease while also celebrating their teammates' everyday wins.

02 Minorstones

Quarterly Roundouts

By combining objective feedback and recognizing progress, quarterly reviews validate the growth gained throughout their time at SVEN.

03 Minorstones

Surprise Sendouts

Every win is celebrated at SVEN. Whether it's an engagement, new arrival in the family, lifestyle change, or pet birthday, online greetings and random surprises keep us connected.

01 Minorstones

Open Promotions

Level-ups aren't dictated by big winning moves but consistent increments of growth. We landed 6 new leadership hires and promotions across our Agency Operations, Media, Strategy, and Business Management teams.

        Deeper belonging can be a challenge with a team of 200+ who work from anywhere, but we enable our varied tribes to move from mere connection to collective power.

01 Tribing

YOUTHPHORIA: UPRISING

For SVEN's 17th anniversary, we took people on a daytrip away from the metro. Team challenges focused on rewilding, celebrating minorstones, enriching connections, and celebrating our 17th a different way to drive in the message behind our uprising.

02 Tribing

Murder Mystery Night

Trivia enthusiasts and newcomers came head-to-head at our Murder Mystery Night, working together to solve a unique mystery featuring agency-related easter eggs!

03 Tribing

Unkavogueable Bash

For Halloween, we invited the agency to dress as their boldest and most unkavogueable (unbeatable) selves before strutting the runway alone, with a partner, or even with a pet!

SVEN encourages its employees to share and talk about the things they're proud about. It didn't matter if it was a small thing like pursuing your hobby or a big thing like buying a house. SVEN was there to celebrate those milestones and that gives positive energy to myself and my co-workers which makes SVEN very different from most workplaces I've worked at.

Elijah C. -Sr. Video Creative

As an Admin Officer handling behind-the-scenes tasks for external brand projects and internal agency requirements, I take pride in knowing I have contributed to their everyday successes, no matter how big or small. This inspires me to always give my best and go beyond expectations.

Char M. -Administrative Officer

Over the past three years at SVEN, I've experienced significant personal and professional growth. In addition to honing my creative skills, I've also improved my communication and social skills by working with my team and others within the company. I've always felt comfortable expressing myself here, and I'm confident that my growth will continue.
