It’s pretty hard to start your own business these days. That’s why KBC bank decided to help beginning entrepreneurs instead of being a pain in the #@$. Together with the inhabitants of every single town in Belgium they went searching for what businesses were needed in — yet again — every town in the country.

This campaign was created by TBWA Belgium and created quite some buzz in the press. The lack of local business became a national topic and was even put on the government agenda. On average 560 gaps were reported for each town and more 1500 new business were started as a direct result of the campaign.
