Increased power of consumers Consumers are looking for ways to contribute to growth of brands, want to collaborate Companies that have consumers involved in decision making are outperforming others Increased technological possibilities, doing research from the natural habitat of the consumer
  • #11 Consumers come to the rescue in our to save the industry
  • #12 Consumer truth: consumers are more empowered than ever, more marketing savvy, there is a huge media clutter, “it’s our brand too”, they want to co-create. Dialogue is the new sending. Then why the hell do we still treat them as cavemen? Business: Just buy my product and shut up Research: Just fill in my survey and shut up While there is so much more; more collaboration it needed. Consumer need / want: I wish there was a company that would bring consumers in the boardroom

  • #31 THE CHALLENGE IS TO CREATE CREATE IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES. AND THE ROLE THE HEINEKEN BRAND CAN PLAY.
  • #32 I TRULY BELIEVE THAT DESIGN PROCESSES AND INNOVATIVE THINKING IS IGNITED BY PUTTING DESIGNERS FROM DFFERENT DICIPLINES TOGETHER. TO GET A FULL INTEGRATED CONCEPT THIS IS A MUST, AND IT IS ENJOYABLE TO DISCOVER HOW THEY CAN INSPIRE EACH OTHER AND THINK CROSS DICIPLINE. TO FIND THESE DESIGNERS WE APPROACHED KEY DESIGN BLOGS LIKE COOLHUNTING, DWELL, CORE 77, AND SET OUT OUR SEARCH. A LOT OF INTEREST AND GREAT RESPONSE. 100 PIECES OF GLOBAL COVERAGE 7000 VIEWS OF THE COACHES AND INVITE VIDEO 15.000 VISITS ON FACEBOOK ODE TAB (4 cities only) 200 PORTFOLIOS RECEIVED!

WE INVITED 15 DESIGNERS PER CITY TO PRESENT THEIR PORTFOLIO AT A WORLDWIDE KNOWN TALENT SCOUTING NIGHT ORIGINATED IN JAPAN< PECHAKUCHA WHICH LITERALY MEANS TO CHITCHAT. 20 SECONDS 20 SLIDES. KNOWN IN THE DESIGN COMMUNITY ALL AROUND THE WORLD.
  • #34 JUST WANT TO SHARE A MOVIE IMPRESSION OF THE DESIGN FLAVOUR THE DESIGNERS AND THEIR EXITEMENT TO BE INVOLVED
  • #35 THE DESINGERS WERE STRANGERS, SO WE TOOK THEM ON A CLUB TOUR TO OBSERVE INTERIORS, BEHAVIOUR AND SHARE THOUGHTS IDEAS AND GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER. A GREAT TEAM SPIRIT WAS CREATED! TO ENABLE CO-CREATION WE HAVE ASKED INSITES TO SET UP A PLATFORM WITH US. AS DESIGNERS WORK FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD THE Y HAVE TO BE ABLE TO SHARE IDEAS, BUILD ON EACH OTHER IDEAS, GET FEEDBACK FROM EACH OTHER AND THE COACHES AND BE INSPIRED.
  • #36 TO GIVE THEM THE RIGHT BAKCGROUND AND INSPIRATION, WE AKSED 140 CLUBBERS TO SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES. SOMETIMES THE SIMPLEST, OBSERVATIONS CAN LEAD TO GREAT DESIGN SOLUTIONS.
  • #38 WE CHALLENEG OURSELVES TO BE INNOVATIVE AND GROUNDBREAKING, WE ALSO CHALLENGE OUR PARTNERS.
  • #39 TO DIRECT THE DESIGNERS AND HELP THEM FOCUS WE CREATED A BRIEF EVERY 2 WEEKS ON AN AREA, ITS INSIGHTS AND CHALLENGES. EXAMPLE STORIES: REFRESHMENT/ORDERING A BEER WAITING IN LINE AT BAR, EYE CONTACT BARMAN, LOOKING FOR YOUR FRIENDS A NICE PLAY TO STAND, WAITING FOR YOUR FRIENDS, WHAT DO YOU DO? LOUNGE YOU LIKE TO SEE THE DANCING BUT YOU DO NOT WANT THE LOUD SOUND, YOU WANT TO BE SERVED, SEEN ENTRANCE WAITING AT AN ENTRANCE IS ANNOYING, IT IS COLD, PEOPLE ARE BEING LET IN IN FRONT OF YOU, WAITING IS BRING. CAN WE ENTERNATIN THEM, FEEL NOTICED? ARE THERE ANY NICE DOORBITCHES?
  • #40 ENDLESS IDEAS IDEAS THAT MAKE SENSE, NOT DESIGN FOR DESIGN SAKE CO-CREATING A BIG IDEA. ONE TO ENHANCE ENJOYMENT IN CLUBS, THE MEMORIES AND… REDUCE ANNOYANCES.
