The Brief

This year, Samsung has launched a global Campaign, Galaxy 11, based on a challenge between Aliens and the best football team on earth. The campaign has gathered the entire world to play a football match that would define the future of humanity. As a local activation, we wanted to deliver to every consumer the sensation of being part of this challenge, and ask them to play, so they can also defy the Aliens and reestablish peace on the universe.

Creative Execution

The activation not only engaged consumers but also reinforced the technological dna of the brand, and delivered the concept of the global campaign.

Describe the creative solution to the brief/objective.

To local instore activation and events, we created The first zero Gravity foosball table simulates how football would be played in space. It challenges players, not only to play with different levels of gravity, but also allows other people to online interact with the gravity filed on the handcrafted tables spread around events, stores and streets.

Results

The activation was launched in the Galaxy 11 cup, at Estádio da Luz, Lisboa, where hundreds of people where invited to experience the sensation of playing foosball in space. From there, the Zero gravity Foosball moved to Samsung Experience stores in Portugal and Spain, where the technological interactive game delivered not only fun, but sales and results through local promotions. 5000 thousand people participated on the activations, increasing 50% the in store flow and the interest in Samsung Galaxy products. At the end, the winner takes earth.
