Morphology
The meaning 'an organized effort to change a company's public image' is directly and transparently built from combining 'rebrand' (to change brand identity) with 'campaign' (a planned set of activities). This compound follows standard English noun-noun/compositional patterns and is likely inferable by a B1 learner who knows both constituents and the notion of a publicity campaign.
Etymology
Rebranding campaign combines brand, a mark once burned on animals or goods to show who owned them, and campaign, a planned series of actions. When a company changes that mark and runs a plan to tell people about it, a rebranding campaign means an organized effort to change its 'public image'.
