The Tifosi Project is IBM and Scuderia Ferrari's celebration of the nearly 400 million fans who make up the most devoted fanbase in motorsport. Rather than promote the team's new fan app with more traditional approaches, IBM earned attention by allowing the fans themselves to help define the digital experience, traveling the world to capture real Tifosi telling their own stories on camera, many for the first time. The resulting films, raw, unscripted, and real, became the centerpiece of a dedicated Tifosi hub inside the app and a social launch that reached 17.1 million organic impressions without paid promotion, at an engagement rate more than 3x platform benchmarks. We built an immersive gallery and video wall at Ferrari headquarters to let the team experience those stories directly, and we brought 6 Tifosi to Italy to have an unscripted family style dinner with the drivers, closing the loop between fans and the team they follow. Inside the app, Tifosi content outranked all but five of 200+ videos; downloads and registrations grew 47%, monthly active users grew 33% (52% on race weekends), and marketing opt-ins grew 89%. The Tifosi Project argues that technology's highest purpose isn't to replace human connection, it's to make more of it possible.
