As for marketing, in77 works closely with multiple brand partners to actively bring in events and activities that young people prefer. Thematic modes of business such as “ACGN”, “local fashion brands”, “retro neighborhoods”, and “tipsy lifestyle” have grown steadily over time, and have become the frontiers of commercial innovation in China. In the first half of 2023, in77 launched a number of impactful and quality events such as the DORA themed special exhibition and Hubin Cosmetics Festival 2.0. These further bolstered its credentials as the “spiritual home” of Gen Z, and it is now a commercial and social space preferred by young people.During the Labor Day holiday period, in77 presented a series of cultural events based on its own characteristics. In particular, its Hangzhou landmark photo-op installation gained a lot of attention on social media platforms. It also collaborated with Hangzhou Drama Theatre to stage a physical comedy flash mob, “You’re Awesome”, to kick-start the Labor Day holiday.
