Anatomy of Hype: How to Reach Fandoms and Leverage Streamers to Fuel Brand Engagement

Fan culture is more prominent than ever. This is evident in the re-emergence of the ‘boy band mania’ surrounding K-Pop, in queues of sneakerheads waiting to snag the latest drop, and in millions of gamers tuning in to competitive esports livestreams.

How Michelob ULTRA is Combining Cutting-Edge Technology and Great Storytelling

For five years, Michelob ULTRA has been leveraging (and even creating) cutting-edge technology to reach, engage and entertain its audience through fan experiences like “Michelob ULTRA Courtside,” “McEnroe vs. McEnroe,” and—most recently— “Dreamcaster,” which enabled a blind fan to commentate on a live NBA playoffs broadcast.

In this session, the brand and its partners at FCB NY will uncover how they are going beyond traditional advertising with consistent innovations in sports entertainment that deliver its point of view: “It’s only worth it if you enjoy it.”
