The co—matter podcast 021 | June 04, 2019

Listen to the co-matter podcast anywhere by subscribing to Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favorite podcasting app (search for "co-matter"). 

We wanted to learn about Yousef’s journey with adidas Runners, and to understand how we can build authentic brand communities in times when people don’t trust brands anymore. We talked about how a brand regains trust by building lasting relationships, how a local community scales globally, and how it measures its success.

Follow Yousef at @yousefhammoudah or adidas Runners at @adidasrunners. Even better, check if there's an adidas Runners club in your city and join it. Who knows, maybe your first marathon is just around the corner.
