OVERVIEWThe B-boy Summit continues to be a major trendsetter in Hip-Hop street dance, art and music culture. Established in 1994, The Summit presented innovative ideas in Hip-Hop culture, offering a conference forum complete with competitions, performances, panels, workshops, and a marketplace for consumer friendly products marketed toward the Hip-Hop community. Never content with success, The B-boy Summit continues its mission to bring the hottest street dance, art, and music above ground to the masses. The B-boy Summit has grown into an internationally acclaimed 3 day festival incorporating all aspects of Hip-Hop in different plateaus, including the most intense battles, rawest circles, theatre performances, a DJ/MC Talent Showcase and live aerosol art painting.

The B-boy Summit was created in 1994 out of the need for a community orientated Hip-Hop event that encompassed knowledge of the history of Hip-Hop culture and the skills of B-boying and B-girling. At that point in time B-boys and B-girls didn’t have a platform in which to come together, dance and pay homage to the traditional dance of Hip-Hop. Each year the event has expanded to encompass B-boys, B-girls, MCs, Aerosol Artists, and DJs from across the globe, steadily building into what is now the foremost Hip-Hop cultural event in the world. More recently, The Summit has become one of the most important events for Lockers, Poppers, Freestyle and House Dancers to take part in during The Summit’s Funk Fest. The global impact of The Summit is insurmountable, most importantly contributing the transmission of B-boy B-girl style of dance, as well as street dance in general to a new generation. Without understanding the roots and culture of Hip-Hop, the youth of today wouldn’t be able to expand on it further, developing the styles into the trends of tomorrow.

ROIWhy should I care about exposure to this community?The street dance community is spread globally, constantly expanding, and rapidly developing in economic strongholds like China. Even so, street dance remains extremely close knit. The market is one that is under saturated with product endorsements, and is very lucrative. B-boying and street dance has evolved into a hybrid blend of entertainment action sports complete with an ever-growing supportive lifestyle scene that rivals that of skateboarding and snowboarding combined. Companies like iPod, Gap, Nike, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Toyota, Tylenol, Scion, Jolly Rancher, and Red Bull are all currently using the B-boy dance and lifestyle image to promote their product in commercials and marketing campaigns. Popular TV shows such as America’s Best Dance Crew, So You Think You Can Dance?, and Dancing with the stars all feature B-boying and street dance. MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas latest show is the Jabawackeez, stars of America’s Best Dance Crew. Popular movies such as Step UP 3D, You Got Served, Saved the Last Dance, and Dance Flick, have all done outstanding numbers at the box office. Do these individuals buy your products?The B-boy lifestyle scene is very concerned with fashionable appearances and high profile products from electronics to beverages and snacks to footwear and clothing
