Heineken (HEINY) has launched 'Starring Bars', a new initiative under its 'Back the Bars' platform that aims to support bars serving Heineken® beer by prioritizing them as filming locations for commercial productions. The program, announced on April 10, 2025, will create a global catalogue of bars at www.starringbars.com, offering detailed information including photos, floor plans, and availability for film, TV, and advertising productions.

The initiative aims to solve two challenges: helping production teams find authentic locations while providing additional income streams for bars. To promote the program, Heineken® is launching a visual campaign featuring bar owners and deploying moving billboards in entertainment hubs with creative messages targeting filmmakers.

According to Nabil Nasser, Global Head of Heineken® Brand, the initiative represents a strategic move to support bars as community hubs and cultural landmarks while creating new commercial opportunities through location rental fees from production budgets.

Heineken (HEINY) has unveiled 'The Flipper', an innovative prototype phone case that automatically flips phones face down when it detects the word 'cheers' through AI-powered voice detection technology. The device aims to combat 'phubbing' - the habit of being distracted by phones during social interactions, which affects up to 47% of adults according to a recent study.

Swedish inventor Simone Giertz collaborated with Heineken to test the device. This initiative follows Heineken's previous digital wellness innovations, including 'The Boring Phone' (a simplified smartphone that became a sellout success) and 'The Closer' (a bottle opener that shuts down work applications).

While The Flipper remains a prototype, it's part of Heineken's #SocialOffSocials campaign to encourage more meaningful face-to-face interactions, particularly in social settings like bars.

Heineken (HEINY) has launched innovative 'Bar Dating' apps in Brazil and Italy, allowing users to discover new bars through a dating app-style interface. The initiative comes as global research reveals 67% of young adults repeatedly visit the same bars despite wanting new experiences.

The apps enable users to 'swipe right' on bar profiles, matching them with venues based on characteristics like atmosphere, live music offerings, and beverage selections. This launch is supported by research showing that 64% of Gen Z and Millennials would prefer finding new bars through a dating app-style interface, while 59% feel their social lives could be more rewarding.
