Concept
In 2012 Stimorol focused on music as key element to leverage brand equity.
Stimorol acted as sponsor of the biggest Swiss open air festivals to establish
the brand in the music scene. But Stimorol went further:
Stimorol promoted not only established artists but also
young, fresh talents!
Stimorol offered a platform for young dancers, bands and solo artists to show their talent to the broad public. The main target group were undiscovered talents and amateurs!
Therefore Stimorol created the Stimorol Music Contest. Within the 3 categories
Solo, Band and Dance Stimorol gave away 30.000 CHF altogether.
