About the team
The Brand Innovation Lab team is the internal group within Amazon that creates one-of-a-kind campaigns and activations for global advertisers, like Pepsi, Microsoft, Adidas, Samsung, and Unilever. Using all of the different platforms within the Amazon canvas (Alexa, Twitch, Prime Video, Custom landing pages on Amazon.com, etc.), we create campaigns that reach millions of Amazon customers across our digital channels and out in the real-world. The Endemic pod specifically deals with brands that sell directly on Amazon – sneakers, laptops, detergent, soda, etc. If it arrives in a bag or a box, that's a brand you could work on.
