NFL 2026: por qué el fútbol americano (el deporte y sus valores) importa más que nunca (y por qué el show de medio tiempo es lo de menos)

(Por Maqueda, Taylor, Ortega y Maurizio) En 2026, cuando el Super Bowl es también un fenómeno de entretenimiento global, conviene defender una idea simple y casi contracultural: lo más relevante del fútbol americano no es lo que pasa en el escenario del entretiempo, sino lo que pasa en el campo… y lo que ese campo ha enseñado durante más de un siglo sobre la cultura competitiva de Estados Unidos.

Adrenalina y estrés: un cóctel peligroso (¿qué tipo de personalidad y qué tipo de organización fomentan este común flagelo?)

(Por la Dra. Sonia Abadi, una cocreación para la prestigiosa comunidad Beyond en colaboración con Infonegocios Miami) Creemos que la adrenalina es energía, excitación, motivación. En realidad, la adrenalina es la hormona de la lucha y, por lo tanto, una respuesta física ante situaciones que producen miedo.

Super Bowl LIX: Bad Bunny cayó en audiencias en TV y no rompió los récords de Usher y Kendrick Lamar, ni MJ (¿por qué medios dijeron lo contrario?)

(Por Maqueda-Maurizio-Taylor) Los datos finales de Nielsen para el Halftime Show del Super Bowl LIX son una cápsula de verdad en un mar de hipérbole digital. 128.2 millones de espectadores. No es un récord. Es, de hecho, una caída de 5.3 millones respecto al pico de 133.5 millones de 2025.

El "Billionaire Bunker" no es una moda, es una estrategia geopolítica de élite (el manual no escrito al que se suscribe Zuckerberg)

(Por Taylor desde Silicon Beach, edición Maurizio) Cuando Mark Zuckerberg compra una propiedad en Indian Creek Village —esa isla privada de 41 mansiones apodada "Billionaire Bunker"— no está comprando una casa. Está adquiriendo una opción estratégica en el tablero geopolítico del capital global. Y con él, se completa una trinidad sagrada: Bezos (Amazon), Page (Google), Zuckerberg (Meta). Los tres fundadores del ecosistema digital que define el siglo XXI ahora tienen su búnker en el mismo kilómetro cuadrado de Florida.

Kylie Jenner y SKIMS: por qué esta campaña no es solo moda (una muestra más de la compleja era de las colaboraciones, phigitalidad y ecosistemas de marca)

(Por Vera- Rotmistrovsky y Maurizio) Esta colaboración, aparentemente sencilla, es en realidad un caso de estudio en estrategia de expansión de categorías, uso inteligente de celebridades y –sobre todo– una lección magistral en cómo conectar lo físico y lo digital en la mente del consumidor.

El gran error estratégico que la mayoría de marcas comenten (y que otras como Ferrari, Adidas, Mercedes y LVMH, corrigieron)

(Por Maurizio y Maqueda) Entre 2015 y 2020, una generación de marketineros —sobreestimulados por la fiebre de las métricas digitales— cometió uno de los errores estratégicos más costosos de la historia del mundo de los negocios: declarar muerto el marketing experiencial y físico.

Rhode Snow Club en Big Sky y Ulta Mate Retreat en Upstate New York (ejemplos claros de la supremacía del ecosistema de experiencias de marca)

(Por Maqueda, Otero y Maurizio) Rhode, Rare Beauty y otras firmas de alto perfil están mostrando que el verdadero poder ya no reside en un único canal, sino en un “head of culture” que orquesta un cruce de acciones: activaciones, celebri­ties, retail, contenido nativo, y experiencias inmersivas que viven en redes, buscadores y tiendas.
