Building C-Suite Trust and
Long-Term Growth Through
an Exclusive Super Bowl Experience

A HIGH-TOUCH IMMERSIVE BRAND EXPERIENCE DESIGNED TO STRENGTHEN EXECUTIVE RELATIONSHIPS THROUGH IMMERSIVE DISNEY STORYTELLING.

The Challenge

With the Super Bowl as the backdrop, DAS had one night to convert a Big Game event space into a reinvented C-suite-worthy brand experience that met the standards of past CLB experiences.

The Risk

A disjointed experience — one that felt generic or overly transactional, or an after-thought would undermine the goal of the CLB event.

The Goal

Position DAS as the premier destination for storytelling and give executives a compelling reason to deepen their ad commitment through an experience where trust could be built, candid and creative conversations could happen naturally, and executives would leave with a clear sense of what it means to be in the Disney ecosystem.

WHAT WE BUILT

  • Immersive Super Bowl event for Disney Advertising Sales' Client Leadership Board
  • Cohesive creative framework built around a central storytelling theme

To give the event a distinct, ownable identity, we evolved the established CLB logo with subtle graphic nods to the iconic Mercedes-Benz Superdome — honoring brand equity while making the experience feel fresh and specific to the moment.

From there, we designed a fully immersive environment where every touchpoint worked together: personalized guest details, media walls, digital integrations, on-screen animations, curated photography, signage, decorative textiles, and table cards — all reinforcing the theme and making each executive feel like a valued guest, not just an attendee.

THE OUTCOME

The Super Bowl CLB delivered on every level. C-suite executives left with a renewed sense of what a true media partnership looks and feels like — not just the scale of Disney's portfolio, but the intentionality and care DAS brings to every relationship.

Conversations that might have taken months to develop in a standard sales context happened organically in a single afternoon. The environment did the heavy lifting — creating the conditions for candid dialogue, strategic alignment, and the kind of trust that translates into long-term commitment.

For DAS, the event reinforced their reputation as a best-in-class partner that invests in their clients' experience at every level. For their clients, it was a clear signal: this is what it means to be in the Disney ecosystem. The result wasn't just a memorable event — it was a stronger foundation for the partnerships that drive their business forward.
