Bold Moves on the Water City Sailing, Uber Style

London’s river just got a creative reboot—Uber Boat’s latest campaign turns the Thames into a symbol of calm, control, and connection.

Atomic Reimagines the Thames as a Power Source

Atomic London, in collaboration with its creator division Supernova, has unveiled a striking new campaign for Uber Boat by Thames Clippers. Running across multiple OOH formats along the river, the campaign transforms the River Thames into a giant, flowing charging cable, visually emphasizing connectivity, calm, and modernity. More than just a clever visual, this concept positions the river itself as a symbol of mental recharge and physical progress—an antidote to the chaos of city life.

A Calmer, Smarter Way to Move Through London

According to Adrian White, Head of Marketing and Communications at Uber Boat, the goal was to inspire a new way of thinking about urban mobility. “As Londoners seek more balance in their routines, we want to redefine city travel,” he says. Their app enables real-time updates, allowing users to work, relax, or simply enjoy the scenic view while on board. The campaign isn't just about promoting transportation—it's about selling a lifestyle upgrade. Uber Boat provides a smarter, calmer alternative to the daily rush of underground or road travel.

Creativity and Calm Come Together in Supernova’s Strategy

Jon Goulding, CEO of Atomic London, emphasized that the campaign is a result of their Orbit model—blending creative strategy with digital amplification through Supernova. The goal? To deliver a unified, cross-platform narrative that redefines how Londoners see their daily commute. “It’s more than a journey from A to B; it’s an experience that’s efficient, enjoyable and genuinely uplifting,” he said. With arresting visuals and seamless messaging, the campaign stands as a benchmark for how OOH and social can collaborate for cultural impact.
