⛳️ 🎮 "Traditional sports sponsorships only go so far in today’s fragmented media landscape. Marketers need to engage sports fans outside the games themselves, and they need to look beyond TV to court the youths, who have never been tethered to cable...That’s where video games come in." - Anthony Vargas, Associate Editor at AdExchanger. We loved this article on our recent 'Tee Time Speedrun' Fortnite fan experience which features great commentary from our CSO & President, Nicholas Walters, as well as Beth Woodruff, Senior Director of Brand Strategy, Integrations, Gaming & Innovation at Ally.

The Advertising Standards Authority’s latest report on children’s exposure to age-restricted content in linear TV has some fascinating stats: 🍸 Exposure to alcohol advertising on TV decreased by 80% between 2010-2023 🎲 Under-16 exposure to gambling ads on TV has decreased by 40% since 2010 🍫 Exposure to HFSS product ads on TV decreased by 67% in the same period But that’s for linear, which continues to be less and less relevant in youth content consumption: the report highlights how habits have continued to shift, with a 74% decline in TV viewership from under-16 audiences in the last decade! 📺 Where has their viewership time gone? To a digital media landscape that’s more fragmented than ever before.

The next generation are default creators, NOT just default consumers 🎨 More than 13 million individual designers created items on Roblox last year alone, meaning that the community drives a lot of the creativity we see on these platforms. When it comes to brands seeding UGC in-game it’s not only about creating something that resonates with the audience. Finding the right creators to introduce those items to the audience is incredibly important too. At SuperAwesome, we have a network of creators that our partners can use to make their launches a success 🚀 Discover more about how to reach and engage safely with Gen Alpha and Gen Z in-game here ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eNQaDne4 #SuperAwesome #IABPlayFronts2024
