Problem

As part of their plan to amplify their brand presence across the United States, Volvo engaged in a significant sponsorship of the Credit One Charleston Open, the largest women’s tennis tournament in the country. Volvo engaged Nth Degree to create and implement a memorable installation at this key event.

Solution

Leveraging its experience with past Volvo event programs like its Ocean Race, Nth Degree developed an experiential program that included displays of Volvo’s latest vehicles, hospitality areas, meeting spaces and more that were open to more than 90,000 attendees during the week-long event. The installation process at the Charleston Open was an engineering feat, involving a range of equipment and skilled labor to meticulously place the structures within the tournament’s grounds.

Result

Volvo’s participation at the Charleston Tennis Open exemplified how a brand can leverage a sports event to enhance its visibility and engage with fans. The Volvo Experience provided a unique opportunity for fans to see Volvo’s latest products and connect personally with some of the world’s top women’s tennis players. The impact of Volvo’s presence at the tournament extended beyond the immediate interactions. With an attendance of 90,000 people at the event and an estimated viewership of over 1 million on television, Volvo’s brand was prominently showcased to a wide audience. The Volvo Experience demonstrated the power of combining brand presence with experiential marketing in a setting that resonates with the public’s passions and interests.
