06 — The Signature

Eduardo Marques

Founder | Chief Creative Intelligence Officer

The traditional advertising agency was built for a world that no longer exists. As AI becomes labor and execution approaches zero cost, selling billable hours and junior-heavy pyramids is obsolete — while intelligence is abundant, human judgment, taste, and strategic empathy have become the ultimate luxury goods.

I am the Founder and Chief Creative Intelligence Officer of a new operating model built to drive business transformation, not just make ads. The operation runs on the same Sandwich architecture detailed above — Maestro Core, Invisible Operations Engine, Specialist Collective — under one simple philosophy: Crafted by Humans, operated by Intelligence.

Career

Over a 31-year career across digital, content, and traditional landscapes, I’ve developed the practices that make breakthrough, non-traditional creative work repeatable. As the former CCO of VML Brazil and Publicis Groupe Benelux, I made Ad Age’s “40 Under 40” list in 2017 and Business Insider’s Top 30 Most Creative People in Advertising in 2016. Previously, as ECD at 180LA, I helped the agency win Ad Age’s Agency A-List as the #2 Stand-out Agency and join the Ad Age/Creativity Creative Innovators list.
