Create & Connect
'Create and Connect' emerged from a vision to showcase how AT&T's 5G technology is democratizing content creation and empowering creators across different platforms and mediums. The project brought together established content creators, entrepreneurs, and media personalities to share their journeys and insights about how technology enables their work.
Strategic Vision
The core objective was to demonstrate 5G's real-world impact through authentic storytelling. Rather than focusing on technical specifications, we chose to highlight human stories that would resonate with aspiring creators and entrepreneurs. By featuring professionals who actively use this technology in their daily work - from live sports coverage to podcast production - we created relatable, practical examples of 5G's capabilities.
