Imagine a stadium where every fan is united, singing in harmony, with synchronized slogans tailored to the moment. With Fanbers, club representatives can broadcast these messages directly to fans’ mobile devices, and all fans can see the slogans on their mobils' screen and can sing and support their team and of course enjoy more form being togegher. This feature is named Fanchant in Fanbers. Our goal is to provide fans with the tools to express their passion constructively and in a way that enhances the experience for everyone involved. We believe that when fans are engaged in a positive way, they can influence the outcome not just of the game, but of the entire event, while upholding the highest standards of sportsmanship.

The New York Times' game division is dipping its toe into events. According to Alexander Lee of Digiday: "New York Times Games held its first live event on Wednesday, August 21, inviting fans and word game experts to a gathering at Manhattan’s Rocco’s Sports & Recreation for a celebration of the 10th anniversary of the NYT’s Mini Crossword game, as well as a live Mini Crossword competition hosted by “Saturday Night Live” cast member Ego Nwodim." "The event was unsponsored and tickets were free, though assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. The New York Times did not sell merchandise or subscriptions at the event — though it did give away free Times-branded finger sweatbands — and did not provide specific benefits for NYT subscribers in attendance. All in all, the event was clearly not intended to generate revenue for the Times." In-person events are one way to build a space where people with shared values or a shared mission (in this case, fans of crossword puzzles) can gather. In short, The NY Times has taken a first step towards building a community. Of course, to build a community you need to host events like these repeatedly. Will they continue? We'll have to wait and see... https://lnkd.in/gvmDrJ3s #communitybuilding #mediaindustry
