Instagram Follower Growth Campaign for TAZIZ – ADNOC (UAE)

Challenge:

TA'ZIZ, the UAE-based platform specialising in chemicals and transition fuels under ADNOC, needed to strengthen its digital presence as a new brand in the UAE by expanding its Instagram follower base. This marked a critical step toward boosting overall digital engagement.

Solution:

IN2 launched a targeted Instagram growth campaign focused on attracting relevant followers. The strategy emphasised optimised advertisement delivery and precise audience targeting. Key performance indicators included follower count, new acquisitions, cost per acquisition (CPA), reach, impressions, and profile activity.

Results:

Through our work with TA'ZIZ, we've helped our client significantly grow the digital presence and audience engagement. Since enlisting IN2 to support its mission, TA'ZIZ’s under 500 follower base grew by over 1,200%. In the past month alone, the Instagram videos posted by TA'ZIZ surpassed 1 million views — a clear sign of strengthened content strategy and reach.

Experiencing Climate Change with IN2 at COP 28

IN2 is firmly committed to fostering global support to drive transformative actions that will help create a future that's both low-carbon and resilient in the face of climate challenges. In that capacity our team attended the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28 UAE), held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from November 30 to December 12, 2023. Operating as integral partners of the Iraqi Ministry of Environment within the Iraqi Pavilion, our team engaged with international stakeholders in pursuit of discussions aimed at nurturing and contributing to the evolution of climate solutions.

Advancing Agritech Solutions In Climate Vulnerable Regions

IN2 co-hosted a three-day hackathon that brought together developers, data scientists, and agricultural experts to tackle real-world challenges in the industry through the use of machine learning. Our hackathon produced innovative solutions to improve the efficiency, productivity and sustainability of agricultural production in areas of the Middle East most affected by climate change.

Boosting Digital Safety Awareness In Iraq

IN2 led a five-month online cybersecurity initiative in Iraq to elevate awareness about cyber hygiene and online safety, particularly among women. Through a national social media campaign, we reached an average of 250,000 Iraqis each week. Melding our technical expertise and insights into Iraq’s cultural landscape, the campaign tackled critical issues like cyberbullying, equipping women with the tools and know-how to protect themselves online.

Strengthening Community Resilience

Since 2015, IN2 has led a communications project in Iraq, leveraging FM radio and digital platforms. Our efforts have not only supported community resilience but also enhanced government responsiveness in conflict-affected communities. Our project’s Facebook page reaches over 45 million people every year and was the first in the governorate to amass one million followers. Through call-in radio shows, interactive social media, and dialogue-focused events, we promote social unity and inclusiveness, and help bridge the divide between officials and citizens. The radio station we established at the project’s inception has since become the region’s premiere media outlet, broadcasting 24/7 and boasting over 1.5 million social media followers.

Countering Election Disinformation In Iraq

Foreign Militias and political groups spread disinformation that manual recounts following the 2021 Iraqi election were part of a Western-led conspiracy, mainly through online platforms. This campaign of disinformation posed a serious threat to public confidence in the election's integrity. To address this, IN2’s Disinformation and Disruption Capability (DDC) partnered with Iraq’s official government agencies to produce online content that explained the need for recounts, why they are a standard part of the election process and what the recounts mean for the democratic process. Our team also executed successful fact-checks and take-downs of disinformation content, thanks to our Meta accreditation, serving to discourage politically induced violence and incitement.

Exposing A Ponzi Scheme In Yemen

IN2 supports a Yemeni fact-checking platform that, through collaboration with partner platforms, reaches an audience of more than 1.5 million both inside the country and in the Diaspora. Its fact-checking findings and investigations are prominent across Yemen’s media landscape, including television and on social media. An IN2 investigation uncovered a Ponzi scheme that defrauded Yemeni citizens to finance the militant group. The investigation led to the Ponzi scheme's closure and prompted social media influencers and nationally renowned religious leaders to publicly denounce the fraud.

Pamuk Project
