Uplifting Community Engagement In Gaming
Ampverse Pulse played a prominent role at DigiCon 2024 during Jollibee Food Corporation’s keynote, “Amplifying Consumer Joy: The Role of Technology and Modern Marketing in Delighting Consumers,” where the Feel G Gaming Convention highlighted effective brand-audience connections. Katrina Yu, JFC’s Chief Marketing Officer, discussed the shift from a sales-centric to a community-centric marketing strategy, emphasizing culture-building initiatives.
The Feel G Gaming convention showcased a successful collaboration between Greenwich, a beloved local pizza brand, and Blacklist International, one of the Philippines’ top esports teams, with Ampverse Pulse facilitating an immersive environment for meaningful interactions.
These events demonstrate how gaming serves as a fertile ground for brands to establish long-term equity with new generations, offering unique opportunities to foster authentic connections and enhance loyalty within vibrant communities. Ampverse Pulse remains committed to innovating and shaping the future of brand interactions in the gaming landscape.
