Elevating extraordinary individuals

Who we are

Welcome to BNOC, where talent meets opportunity. BNOC, which stands for Big Name on Campus, was launched to represent the next generation of BNOCs in the talent space. Influencers and talent are a dime a dozen nowadays. Here, each of our talent is carefully curated, deeply passionate and has a unique perspective.

About us

We live in a world that is fixated on brand safety and vanity metrics, when this should be the bare minimum.
What if there was a different way?
What if you didn’t just buy talent based on reach and engagement but based on their values?
Values you share.
Values your audience share.
Values that won’t just keep your brand safe,
but will enhance it.

BNOC is a values-led influencer agency.

Our books are filled with talent not just defined by numbers, but by what they have achieved. Influencers who have had purposeful careers and journeys, including doctors, entrepreneurs and lawyers.

Values-led influence isn’t just the right thing to do for the world, it’s the strategic thing to do for brands. Research has proven time and time again that consumers are more likely to purchase a product if the brand or influencer’s values align with their own.

Values-led influencer marketing is the next generation of responsible and commercially savvy influencer marketing.

Mission

We are dedicated to nurturing these individuals and connecting them with brands and opportunities that resonate with who they are.
