What We'll Deliver

Six pillars of campus domination for Dot & Key

Every activation is custom-built for your brand. No templated stalls. No generic banners. Here's what your campus circuit will look like.

01

Premium Campus Branding

Your brand presented inside IIT Roorkee, AIIMS Rishikesh, and other Tier-1 colleges โ€” places where commercial branding is usually not allowed. We get you in front of 15,000+ Gen Z students actively building brand preferences.

02

Truss Branding on Artist Nights

When Shreya Ghoshal, B Praak, Jasmine Sandlas, Salim-Sulaiman, Shaan, or Darshan Rawal performs, your brand owns the moment. Trust Branding puts Dot & Key at the heart of the night's biggest emotional peaks.

03

Student Engagement Kiosk

A dedicated Dot & Key experience zone inside the college during the fest โ€” not a boring stall, but an interactive brand environment designed around your product range: Vitamin C, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic, Retinol.

04

20-Minute Brand Spotlight

Exclusive brand engagement with the student audience for 20 minutes just before the headline artist takes the stage. The highest-attention window of the entire fest โ€” every student is present, energized, and receptive.

05

Brand Reels on X+ Profiles

Professionally shot brand reels capturing Dot & Key's campus moment, created and posted across our network of influencer profiles. Budget determines reach โ€” even the base package guarantees high-quality content that lives beyond the event.

06

Creative Engagement Activities

Skin Match Games where students pair by skincare ingredient. Sun Sign Skincare challenges. Every activity is designed to be Instagram-worthy, shareable, and tied directly to product trial and coupon redemption.

Custom Ideas for Dot & Key

Not activations. Experiences.

We're a creative team. Every brand gets a format built from scratch. Here are concepts designed specifically for Dot & Key's product universe.

Skin Match

Skin Match Zone

Tinder, but for skincare. Students pick ingredient cards โ€” Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, Retinol, SPF โ€” and match with someone who chose the same ingredient. Both walk away with a Dot & Key coupon and product sample.

Astro Beauty

Your Sun Sign, Your Skin Routine

Students draw personalized skincare recommendations based on their zodiac sign. Each reading comes with a Dot & Key product recommendation and an exclusive discount code.

Ingredient IQ

Ingredient IQ Quiz

A rapid-fire quiz about skincare ingredients. Winners get full-size Dot & Key products. Everyone else gets coupons. The learning sticks. So does the brand.

Star Power

Artists who fill the night. Your brand fills the moment.

When these artists perform, the entire campus shows up โ€” and stays. That's when 45-70% of booth visitors convert.

๐ŸŽค Shreya Ghoshal ๐ŸŽค B Praak ๐ŸŽค Jasmine Sandlas ๐ŸŽค Salim-Sulaiman ๐ŸŽค Darshan Rawal ๐ŸŽค Javed Ali ๐ŸŽค Mohit Chauhan

Why Urban Aura

We don't activate. We convert.

In the crowded campus activation space, here's why 50+ brands choose to work with us โ€” and keep coming back. Most campus agencies give you a banner and a table. We give you a custom-built brand experience designed to move product.

01

Deep Campus Relationships

We don't cold-call colleges. Our network is built on years of trusted partnerships with student bodies, fest committees, and university administrations. Commercial branding inside premier institutions like IITs and AIIMS is nearly impossible to secure โ€” we've built those relationships over years.

02

Repeat-Business Track Record

Triggr: 5 events. Myntra: 5 events. Garnier: 5 events. Realme: 4 events. When brands see the ROI, they scale with us. That's why 50+ brands trust us with repeat engagements.

03

Full-Stack Execution

From concept to execution โ€” creative design, kiosk fabrication, artist booking, stage production, brand installations, content capture, lead gen. Every activation is built from scratch for your brand. Beauty brands don't get fintech booths. One partner, one invoice, zero coordination headaches.

04

200+ Artist Roster

From Sunidhi Chauhan to Zakir Khan โ€” our roster spans genres and budgets. We match the right artist to your brand, ensuring maximum crowd pull and booth conversion during peak hours.

05

Measurable Impact

QR-coded coupons, unique discount codes per campus, tracked redemptions. Every activation comes with clear metrics: footfall, impressions, UGC volume, lead count. You'll know exactly how many students converted โ€” and from which college.

06

Pan-India Coverage

North, South, East, West โ€” we activate wherever your audience is. From Tier 1 metros to Tier 2/3 markets, one partner covers it all across 100+ campuses nationwide.

Let's Put Dot & Key Inside India's Most Coveted Campuses.

We've done this for Garnier, Swiggy, Life Changing Astro, BookMyShow, and multiple brands across Beauty, Fintech, F&B, and EdTech.
The format changes. The results don't.
Let's build yours.
