Basil Antonas
Creative Director
Before co-founding Brandcourage Basil was Regional Creative Director of Dentsu Y & R. So why Brandcourage? "Well if 20 years as an advertising Creative Director working on some of the world’s biggest brands taught me anything, it's that success depends on understanding that powerful brands live deep in the psyche and have the
courage to grow from the inside out." Real and engaging communication internally and externally is vital for brand creation, rejuvenation and growth. In a world where major differences between products and services are rare, Basil uses his experience and skill to create intangible values, and transform them into valuable assets.

Keren knows what clients want, because she was one. After spending two decades in advertising as a Production Manager, Television Producer and Account Service Manager, for some of Australia's biggest agencies she became Group Marketing Manager
for seven hotels and resorts. This experience has given Keren invaluable insights into how clients and agencies work, and how processes can be improved. It’s a courageous move, so there is no place she would rather be than brandcourage.
