Creating Real Value for Your Brand: The Benefits of Illustration

When everything can be generated, what makes a brand truly stand out?

As templates, stock visuals, and AI-optimized content flood our feeds, much of today’s visual communication starts to look generic and interchangeable. When everything becomes easier to produce, standing out becomes harder.

The challenge is no longer creating more content.
It’s creating communication that feels distinctive, human, and memorable.

In this keynote, Zürich-based illustrator and creative director Ingeborg Schindler, founder of Hello Ingeborg, explores how handcrafted illustration can bring attitude, personality, and differentiation back into brand communication.

With over 25 years of experience in international creative agencies across Europe, she now works at the intersection of illustration, design, and brand management. Her colorful, narrative visual language combines clarity with joie de vivre, resulting in distinctive visual concepts with strong recognition value for renowned brands such as Deutsche Bahn, BMW, Confiserie Sprüngli, Condé Nast, Paul Smith, ARTE, RTL Group, and Deloitte.

Join us on April 2 as she shares international examples showing how illustration builds trust, adds emotional depth, and makes complex ideas easier to understand.
