Project Brief

The world’s largest gathering in the consumer electronics industry, the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), brings together more than 4,000 exhibitors under one roof. ZTE headed into CES 2018 to launch the AXON M phone. The newly released phone featured dual screens allowing multiple viewing options.

CHALLENGE

Leading into CES, ZTE tasked Derse with the following objectives:

  • Booth design should illustrate the product.
  • Drive engagement in the booth through activation and demos—visitors should know, experience, and remember ZTE.
  • Activation should create attention through ZTE’s sports sponsorships.
  • Create entertaining and interactive demo experiences.
  • Booth should increase social media attention and followers beyond CES event.
