Abstract
This study explores how leading brands manage and execute brand activations on Roblox, focusing on strategies that enhance engagement and challenges unique to the virtual environment of the Metaverse. Using a mixed-methods approach, including case studies and interviews with developers and target audiences, the research examines the essential elements that contribute to successful brand activations. The presentation addresses critical project management challenges, such as balancing brand identity with creative possibilities within Roblox’s technical constraints and fostering community engagement to build brand loyalty. Key insights reveal how brands navigate the limitations of virtual assets, develop meaningful interactions, and adapt their brand narratives to resonate with digital-native audiences.
