Audi x FC Bayern Car Handover & App Launch
2024
Client
Audi AG
The Challenge
The goal was to create a meaningful, media-rich handover of Audi’s latest all-electric vehicles to FC Bayern Munich’s top players while simultaneously launching a fully integrated FC Bayern app inside Audi’s digital ecosystem. This required balancing a high-profile public event with technical in-car software integration—ensuring both moments resonated across press, fans, and tech users.
The Approach
Leading this landmark activation, I aligned Audi’s sustainability vision with FC Bayern’s strategic goals. We developed a premium fan experience at Audi Piazza, allowing real-time interaction with football stars, and introduced seamless access to live match updates and exclusive club content inside Audi vehicles through the newly integrated app. This project highlighted Audi’s leadership in premium electric mobility and digital innovation.
