SUMMARY
Budweiser
had to build relevance among hockey-loving beer-drinkers in a cut-throat,
declining market and break through massive hockey sponsorship clutter, led by
their #1 competitor. Our response? Don’t think like a sponsor, think like
a fan! Through a powerful, live activation, we literally put goal-scoring into
the hands of fans, helping them celebrate their teams. We created the ultimate
fan experience by building Canada’s first goal-synced arena: a broadcast
integration centred on activating thousands of goal-triggered Budweiser
Red-Light glasses. This highly-effective approach drove impact and deepened
their connection to Budweiser.
