Socials McAfee School of Business

Promoting the launch of the Ethos Forum building, a hub of business, computer science, and engineering

Let's Work Together

Union University’s McAfee School of Business partnered with Frontline Creative Studio to promote the grand opening of their new academic facility, The Ethos Forum. This state-of-the-art building houses the McAfee School of Business, along with Union’s Computer Science and Engineering departments.

Frontline was contracted to help the Mcafee School of Business generate buzz, engage local businesses and supporters, and position The Ethos Forum as a hub for creativity, entrepreneurship, and faith-driven excellence.

Union University sought to:

  • Drive attendance for the dedication ceremony
  • Showcase key features (makerspace, business incubator, learning studios) to prospective students, alumni, and local business partners
  • Reinforce the McAfee family’s legacy and lead gift

Frontline was engaged to coordinate messaging, graphics, social media, ad strategy, and event videography, making each touchpoint convey the building’s purpose and its broader significance for Union, future students, and the Jackson community.
