Details

Misconceptions about modern hearing aids contribute significantly to the fact that 4 out of 5 people worldwide do not have their hearing loss treated. GN is addressing this fact with The New Norm. For the campaign, US photographer Gala Ricote portrayed personalities who live confidently with hearing aids. The images are offered to the media and audiologists free of charge in order to promote a contemporary image of the devices. At the same time, the motifs also contribute to the external image of the company itself. The images were central part of the GN stand at the world's largest hearing acoustics trade fair, EUHA in Hanover in October 2024.
