Health insurance company Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida returned to the Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival in Miami (Feb. 23 to 29) this year as a title sponsor of the SOBE Fun and Fit area where it encouraged families to pursue a healthy lifestyle through activities that focused on a healthy, locally based diet. The brand transformed its 900-square-foot area into an “edible” tent that resembled a mini farmers market where it held hands-on cooking demonstrations and educational seminars with celebrity Chef Aria Kagan.

Been to any good concerts lately? How about a concert with a killer brand sponsorship program that made a meaningful connection with you before, during and after the live event? Concert tour promotions are a staple in the brand marketer’s bag of tricks, but the engagement model is getting a much-needed overhaul as marketers and promoters have found more engaging ways to integrate the investment across multiple online and offline channels.
