Red Bull USA has chosen the greatest tech minds of today’s world in course of its Red Bull Creation contest of inventors, makers, and hackers. Previously the brand has posted a call for all inventors to participate in a competition and roll out their works that would link the past to the future. So, the main requirement set for the submissions is that it should be an invention of the future with a ‘retro’ twist.

As announced in autumn 2010, Sampaio Moreira building which is the oldest sky-scraper in Sao Paolo, became the inspiration and residency to two groups of young artists working in different genres of the modern day art. They revitalized the building with their works ranging from painting to sculpture, installations and movies and turned it into a Red Bull House of Art. Now, the third group of artists is ready to unveil their work done within the walls of the oldest skyscraper in Sao Paolo. The names of the participants of the latest collaboration include Ana Silver, Bruno Storni, Felipe Bittencourt, Gustavo Ferro, Renato Pera and Theo Craven.

Comparison stands behind any considered choice, and any confident global brand tends to provide its consumers with an opportunity to examine both the positive and negative sides of their products—and sometimes weigh its offerings against goods by other manufacturer. Sometimes, companies also step outside the product world and help compare lots of other things—sexes, automobiles, brothers, tastes, political parties, athletes and more—to help determine which of the two is better, stronger, messier, tastier, faster, more attractive, reliable, sportive, etc.  In this overview, we won’t focus on serious ratings revealing carbon footprint or social impact, like Nike’s Environmental Apparel Design Tool, Timberland’s Eco Index or GoodWill’s rating—instead, as tribute to April Fool’s Day, which was celebrated last Friday, we will focus on humorous and tongue-in-cheek projects.

‘Catch them young’ is thought to be the secret motto of all companies and brands, but as their activity proves, they are not only establishing strong ties with younger consumers from early years of their life to make them used to buying a particular product, but also support their creativity, encourage to develop eco-friendly attitude and start making contributions to the world though participating in a range of social projects devised or supported by brands. Today, we at Popsop are delving into answering the question of what marketing efforts attract representatives of Generation Z (born 1991-2002) and to some extend Generation Y (born 1981-1990).

To celebrate its strong ties with urban culture, Red Bull has launched a collaborative digital project based on the concept of map Street View technology developed by Google, which has recently presented its new web-product dedicated to art venues around the world. While Google Art Project invites web users to explore galleries around the world, the Red Bull Art Street View takes them on a virtual journey along city blocks in a number of cities.
