AMP Energy and Twitch Ask Fans to Level Up through Exclusive Gaming Partnership

Program features first-ever co-branded Twitch cans and sweepstakes for trips to TwitchCon 2016

PURCHASE, NY– AMP Energy and Twitch, the world’s leading social video platform and community for gamers have teamed up to bring gamers a one-of-a-kind program that encourages AMP Energy fans and the Twitch community to ‘level up’ their gaming experience this spring and summer. The program features a national fan and broadcaster sweepstakes, a new website, limited-edition gear and co-branded AMP Energy + Twitch cans, marking the first time the iconic Twitch logo has ever been used on any non-gaming retail product.

“Through this partnership with Twitch, we are excited to bring together two brands that have a deep sense of camaraderie and energy,” said Greg Lyons, senior vice president, marketing, AMP Energy. “AMP brings flavor to the energy category so that fans can enjoy the great taste of their energy drinks while they fuel up. Similarly, AMP wants to provide gamers a heightened level of enjoyment by teaming up with Twitch to provide unique experiences and help energize gamers for the challenges they face both in and out of the virtual world.”

“The Twitch community has never seen our brand on this type of consumer packaging or in retail stores in this fashion before,” said Anthony Danzi, senior vice president, client strategy, Twitch. “It’s a fun step for us to partner with a cool brand like AMP and we look forward to our fans taking part in the sweepstakes and hopefully winning some exclusive swag!”
