What message connects the different audiences in our ecosystem?

A shared ecosystem message should explain what participants can make possible together, rather than present the enabling business's tools as separate offers. For Genius Sports, the Built on Genius campaign centred on richer fan experiences powered by sports data. Genius Sports captures and shares details of sporting events that broadcasters, streamers, betting companies, teams and sponsors can use to create those experiences. Research identified changing sports engagement as the common opportunity: digital technologies were enabling businesses to go deeper with data and connect with fans in new ways. Built on Genius gave that opportunity a single, flexible expression. The useful starting point is the outcome connecting the audiences, with the enabling business's role made explicit within that shared story.

Different audiences need to recognise their own role within a shared promise. The Genius Sports campaign used adaptable visuals to show the same enabling role from different participant perspectives. A layered collage style captured the scale of the data and its ripple effect within a single graphic. The composition could be tailored from a player perspective to a brand perspective, while keeping the fan at the heart of the action. Built on Genius connected the brand campaign, film and social campaign, positioning Genius Sports at the centre of the ecosystem. The practical approach is to retain a recognisable central idea while changing the perspective used to express it, making each audience's relevance specific without replacing the shared story.
