Bold launches Wingo summer campaign for roaming and internet
Bern-based agency Bold has created the first offer campaign for telecom provider Wingo following the brand’s relaunch in spring 2026. Running since June across Switzerland, the summer-trade campaign highlights mobile roaming and home internet deals using bright, summery visuals. Media placements include Out-of-Home, display and social media. The client is Swisscom (Schweiz) AG; Bold is credited as the responsible agency and DOOH production lead, with Laurids Jensen contributing key visuals.

Bold Partners on Wingo's AI‑Generated Campaign
Bold partners Philippe Hansen and Moritz Adler discuss the creative process behind Wingo’s new brand campaign, which shifts away from testimonial-driven, comedic ads toward a simpler claim (“Weil's einfach geht”) and a visual system built around a “variable room” and a flexible Wingo logo. The campaign used a hybrid production workflow: studio photography and filming of real people provided source material that was then used to create AI-generated "Digital Twins" and final imagery/videos; no studio images appear unchanged in the finished ads. Swisscom (Wingo’s parent) requires transparency and labels the communication as AI-produced (“AI‑Umsetzung”). The agency says the approach changed roles across agency, photographer and production partners and accelerated creative testing via generative tools.
