Canva, an all-in-one visual communication platform, unveiled its inaugural brand marketing campaign Dil Se, Design Tak in India. This new campaign comes as the company doubles down on hyperlocal integrated marketing initiatives to reach and educate diverse segments of Indian users.
India, home to a vibrant creator community, has quickly emerged as Canva's fifth largest market, experiencing remarkable growth in 2023. Today over 120 Indian creators are now participating in the Canva Creator Program, and India’s Canva for Freelancers community has 240,000 members—a testament to the growing demand for visual communication among knowledge workers and freelancers in the country.
Canva’s latest brand campaign, Dil Se, Design Tak, highlights the power of using Canva to transform ideas into reality; encouraging individuals from small to large enterprises in India to unleash their creativity at work. Be it collaborating on projects between teams or creating winning pitch decks, Canva has always been at the forefront of making design accessible to everyone, from students and teachers to small business owners and large organisations.
With the launch of this brand marketing campaign, Canva aims to deepen its connection with Indian users, and enhance top-of-mind awareness of its unique offerings.
