In an electrifying display of youthful energy and enthusiasm, vivo, the official smartphone partner of the National Basketball Association (NBA), kicked off the first leg of its much-anticipated vivo School Tour at Lyceum University of the Philippines on Sept. 29, 2023.
The highlight of the event was the riveting 3 on 3 basketball challenge, where six teams from Lyceum competed fiercely and two teams won for the honor of representing their school at the Grand Finals scheduled for November. The exhilarating competition showcased the passion and sporting prowess of the students, as they dribbled, dunked, and displayed their basketball skills.
But the excitement didn’t stop there. The event also featured lively TikTok dance competitions, bringing out the students’ creativity and flair for entertainment.
vivo also took the opportunity to introduce the vivo Club, a platform where students can sign up to receive various perks and benefits. These include exclusive internship opportunities, invitations to exciting events, team-building activities, and other exciting experiences. Registration is now for all students nationwide.
Adding to the thrill of the event, vivo set up an experiential table for its latest devices, including the vivo V29 5G, Y36, Y27, and Y02t. Attendees had the chance to explore and experience these cutting-edge gadgets firsthand.
The vivo School Tour is a testament to vivo’s commitment to promoting a healthy and active lifestyle among the youth. Through sports and entertainment, vivo aims to engage and inspire young individuals to lead an active and fulfilling life.
