[Visual description: The video is made of blue and green icons, text and computer-generated effects. Words and images move quickly around the screen with a sense of excitement and urgency. The movement matches the rhythmical music and voiceover. Words and sentences slide on and off the screen, change colour, stretch, grow and glow to bring them to life. In the middle of the video we see all the icons coming together in a pattern around the words ‘our strategy’.]
Music throughout: Energetic and rhythmical hand clapping and drumming.
