Youth (18–35 years) as primary users, with growing female participation.
Regulatory Environment: Government initiatives like the "Digital India" campaign and evolving policies for gaming monetization.
2. P&G’s Gaming Solutions Framework
A. Localized Content & Partnerships
Collaborate with Indian Game Developers: Co-create branded mini-games or in-game rewards (e.g., Olay’s skincare challenges within gaming platforms).
Cultural Relevance: Adapt campaigns to regional languages (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu) and festivals (Diwali, Holi).
B. Technology-Driven Engagement
AR/VR Integration: Use P&G’s R&D capabilities to develop AR filters (e.g., Pampers baby care AR experiences) for gaming platforms like Snapchat or Instagram.
Blockchain for Gamers: tokenized rewards for P&G loyalty programs (e.g., Hindustan Unilever’s "Unilever Live" model).
