The watch industry’s largest event held annually in Switzerland each March, BaselWorld was the perfect platform to reinforce a leadership position for Timex Group in the timepiece and jewelry industry. With 12 watch brands across the luxury and mass sectors under the corporate umbrella, the Timex Group had a major presence at the event. The forum allowed a strategic opportunity to connect Timex Group CEO, Hans-Kristian Hoejsgaard, with a global media audience across trade, business and lifestyle press to deliver a unique point of view of business trends, while also underscoring the company’s core commitment to CSR.
Kaplow secured and co-staffed more than 20 media meetings with press representing countries around the globe, including the US, Europe, China, India and South America.

Did you know that 80% of women are wearing the wrong bra size? Kaplow teamed up with REDBOOK magazine for a campaign aiming to educate women on how to get the right fit. Kaplow hand-selected a group of media to attend a NYC bra-fitting party hosted by Stacy Morrison, Editor-In-Chief, REDBOOK magazine. Media attendees included New York Daily News, SheKnows, SheFinds, NewYorkMag.com and fashion expert Jenn Falik. Attendees learned how to properly fit themselves with the guidance of Morrison and Warner’s own Nancy Lesser Bellini and Ramona Dunlap. To round out the campaign, Morrison filmed an instructional bra-fitting video, which played throughout the party, and now lives on Warners.com and Redbookmag.com—teaching women all over the world to find their right fit.
