Business Case
Nike wanted to create an In-store Sporting Engagement for consumers across brand touch points. This would help consumers make choices based on their favorite sports and personal athletic attributes.

SOLUTION

Every augmentation delivered rich consumer engagement pertaining to Nike’s Merchandise.
