Is Bang Energy back baby…or has Monster Energy CEO Rodney Sacks been dialing 1-900-Mix-A-Lot for the last year looking for turnaround answers for the struggling energy drink brand? While you might assume the Bang Energy turnaround isn’t that materially important to the energy drinks portfolio giant, Monster Beverage is fighting to stay relevant within the growing “energy plus” subcategory that's defining the future of the beverage category. So, the bulk of the insights within my newest content will focus on the Bang Energy turnaround progress...looking through three strategic lenses: 1️⃣ sales/distribution results with The Coca-Cola Company 2️⃣ product innovation pipeline 3️⃣ branding/marketing efforts But that last part is what's absolutely key to everything...as Monster must redefine the Bang Energy "lifestyle" that was cultivated by its founder Jack Owoc. And the answer could come from the recent strategic partnership between Bang Energy and the streaming (and content creator) supergroup Any Means Possible (AMP) that also makes them the creative minds behind brand and product strategy. For those that don’t understand the potential impact of this deal, AMP is comprised of six members...with the most popular member being Kai Cenat, who holds enough “attention” to shift culture. In my opinion, AMP is one of the few digital entertainment brands that could provide the level of innovation, creativity, and dynamic engagement needed to lift Bang Energy out of the Jack Owoc shadow. #strategy #trends #markets #fmcg #cpg #beverages #energydrinks #supplements #sportsnutrition #streaming #socialmedia #innovation #marketing #branding #productdevelopment #retailing #merchandising #retail #grocery #business #businessintelligence #entrepreneurship https://lnkd.in/gtmTfACk

Super Bowl LVIII - has done it again!   Taking centre stage not only as a pinnacle of athletic competition but also as a groundbreaking event in environmental consciousness. This year, for the first time ever, the organisers decided to power the event with 100% renewable energy, setting a new standard for large-scale gatherings. It's not just a win for the Kansas City Chiefs, but for sustainability too! Ridiculously impressive!   According to this article, the event was the first Super Bowl to be powered entirely by renewable energy, an incredible feat considering the sheer amount of electricity needed to keep the lights on in a stadium that seats up to 65,000 fans.   By showcasing the importance of sustainability on a global stage, Super Bowl LVIII is setting the benchmark for sustainable events everywhere. As an event agency that prioritises sustainability, it's heartening to see such a high-profile event prioritise environmental responsibility. Let's applaud this significant step towards a greener future and continue to prioritise environmental consciousness in all aspects of life.   Jessica Noble Head of Client Delivery & Operations We Are Phoenix   #Sustainability #SuperBowlLVIII #RenewableEnergy #Events #EventManagement https://lnkd.in/gaPFhDvE

UNLOCKING THE ARTICLE FOR YOU Does Slovakia need a new pumped-storage power plant?

This power plant will become an important part of our energy infrastructure in 10 to 15 years. Currently, battery storage systems cannot replace such a pumped-storage power plant from a technological or cost standpoint, primarily due to the limited lifespan of batteries. However, they are an ideal complement for improving its efficiency. Read more
