Creative work shines brighter with weather

Mother Nature loves stealing the spotlight at Cannes Lions, and 2026 will be no exception. Because this year, she’s bringing the heat to your marketing stack with the most powerful, overlooked signal in the industry: the weather.

At The Weather Company, we help you move past “it might rain” to master the science of intent. By blending AI with neuroscience, we’ve unlocked how the weather acts as a macro-contextual trigger in the subconscious, where 90% of people’s decisions are made.1 We call it Mindset Marketing: the ability to predict the “why” behind the “what.”

As the world’s most accurate forecaster2 and one of America’s most trusted brands,3 we’re here to help you:

  • Decode the path to purchase: Identify the subconscious triggers that dictate what your customers feel, what they do, and what they buy next. We turn atmospheric data into business logic that can boost marketing ROI by nearly 20%.4
  • Turn forecasts into outcomes: Replace stale signals with predictive intent to help you stay ahead of shifting demand.
  • Future-proof your bottom line: 100% of executives agree,5 weather intelligence can help control the fiscal impact of weather-driven market fluctuations.

Weather isn’t just a report; it’s a market mover. If you’re still stuck on umbrellas and iced coffee, you’re missing the bigger picture. We’re here to help you operationalize the invisible forces shifting your market.

Meet with us in Cannes. Let’s go beyond the forecast and get straight to the “what’s next” for your business.
