The service is designed to help businesses reach Generation Z (born 1997-2012) and Generation Alpha (born 2013 onward) through a combination of VTuber tie-ups, esports, XR and metaverse content, animation production, and fan community management. Brave group says traditional advertising like TV commercials and standard web ads are losing effectiveness with these digital-native demographics, who prefer information from creators, streamers, and interactive experiences. The company positions its in-house assets-including its VTuber IP, the Brave pictures animation studio, the colleize merchandise e-commerce platform, and its esports event production capabilities-as a one-stop solution. A dedicated website for Brave Marketing is now live, and the company is accepting consultation requests from corporate clients. Brave group aims to establish itself as the go-to partner for marketing to younger generations, leveraging its experience in fan community operations and next-generation culture assets.","whyItMatters":"Brave group is formally packaging its VTuber, esports, XR, and animation capabilities into a single commercial service, signaling that the company sees its internal fan-engagement infrastructure as a sellable product for outside brands rather than just a support system for its own IP.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe service menu includes VTuber collaborations such as live-stream partnerships, branded ambassador programs, and social media campaigns; original corporate VTuber development and management; XR and metaverse content built in platforms like Roblox and Fortnite; esports tournament production; animation and promotional video production through Brave pictures; fan community and e-commerce integration via the colleize store and subscription services; and overall branding and new business consulting. Brave group says many companies struggle with the high specialization required to design cross-platform promotions using VTubers, XR, and esports, and that selecting the right partners and measuring ROI are common pain points. The new service is meant to address those gaps by offering a single point of contact backed by the group's existing IP, technology, and community operations. The dedicated website organizes solutions around four axes: VTuber, Immersive, Technology, and Fandom, and will eventually offer original content alongside case studies and an inquiry form.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Brave group is packaging its VTuber, esports, XR, and animation assets into a single marketing service called Brave Marketing, aimed at helping brands reach Gen Z and Alpha audiences through creator-driven campaigns.","twitterPost":"Brave group launches Brave Marketing: a one-stop service for brands targeting Gen Z and Alpha via VTuber collabs, esports events, metaverse builds, and fan community management.
