The "Phygital" Phenomenon: Merging the Physical and Digital in the Shopping Experience

 

The launch strategy for Messi Originals in Miami incorporates innovative elements that blur the lines between the physical and digital, creating an immersive and unique shopping experience.

Estela Rotmistrovsky, from Miami, comments, "Few people and brands understand the new marketing that intertwines with branding, experiences, category expansion (not just product lines, we're talking about new business categories), brand culture, associativity, crossing channels, and phygital media – all of that, interconnected in time, is Crossing Marketing. Adidas, Inter Miami, Messi, F1, and Ferrari are some of the brands leading this coherent vision."
