Leverage the power of collective credibility and real-life experiences with event brand sponsorships. SocialSet is a creative community and co-working studio in Los Angeles that hosts a diverse variety of events, including gallery exhibitions, fashion shows, networking mixers, and film festivals.


With as little as $50 per event, your brand gets exposure to your target audience – unlike other sponsorships that cost $2,000 to $3,000 for a booth. At a SocialSet event, you’ll share sponsorship with only a handful of other sponsors, so that your message is seen and heard – not lost in the shuffle.


From title sponsorships to interactive brand activation booths, discover why brand sponsorships are an effective way to reach a high-quality audience and grow your business.

Brand Activations: Give your customers what they crave: memorable experiences

SocialSet partners with brands to concept, design & build exciting branded experiences and environments.

Engage your target audience on a multi-sensory level with a brand activation, the new “word-of-mouth” for the Instagram age. Word-of-mouth has always been the gold standard for effective, but a brand activation increases consumer engagement exponentially by immersing them in a unique, all-encompassing world – the world of your brand. 

“Immersive set design and technology can transport potential customers into a special world, creating a brand experience that’s far more powerful than any banner ad or email chain.”


What is a brand activation? Brand activations are physical events or experiences that allow your brand to directly engage with consumers. They’re also one of the most effective ways to reach new audiences and build a loyal community of fans.

At SocialSet, we know that the best brand activations are clever, easily accessible, and most importantly: memorable. Whether you’re launching a new look, a new product, or an entirely new brand, we can help you create a brand activation that makes a mark.

Why Do You Need a Brand Activation?

Interaction and experiences drive consumer action today, and a brand activation motivates that kind of engagement. They prompt awareness, engagement, and connection through meaningful, real-life moments that motivate consumer action. A good brand activation campaign breathes life into your message, creating energy and forging long-lasting emotional relationships.

Brand Marketing Through Unique Experiences

Original, first-person experiences are the key to successful brand activations. These IRL moments allow consumers to touch, taste, smell, see, and try on your brand as part of their identity to see if it fits. Immersive set design and technology can transport potential customers into a special world, creating a brand experience that’s far more powerful than any banner ad or email chain. Coordinated social media support enhances your message through influencers who feel like friends – not cogs in an institution.
