Abstract


This study aims to investigate the effect of two types of sustainability storytelling by a luxury brand (immersive vs non-immersive) on sustainable brand image.  A laboratory experiment was conducted with 110 consumers. . The results showed that immersive sustainability storytelling in 360° virtual reality elicits a more emotional experience than non-immersive sustainability storytelling. Furthermore, the results showed that the emotional experience positively influences the sustainable brand image.
