In New York City, wellness brand Thorne launched ‘Just Add Water,’ its first public pop-up promoting hydration as part of a national campaign featuring tennis star Ben Shelton.

Entertainment saw an atmospheric leap as Max reimagined Southeast Asian and Taiwanese cityscapes with dystopian visuals inspired by The Last of Us, inviting fans into the series’ eerie world. In New York, Billie’s ‘Scratch-and-Sniff OOH Campaign’ allowed passersby to interact with scent-releasing posters for its Coco Villa deodorant, merging product discovery with sensory marketing.

Gong Cha’s ‘Mini Pearl Adventures’ campaign creatively employed generative AI to drive social-first engagement for its Mini Pearl drink range. Beauty brand YSL made waves with ‘Light Club 2.0,’ an immersive experience rooted in nightlife aesthetics at cdf Sanya. Meanwhile, the University of North Carolina empowered its 850 student-athletes as digital influencers, reshaping collegiate marketing strategies.
