About The Magic Line
The Magic Line” is a month-long, multimedia campaign that launches with a virtual video premiere event on Tuesday, December 8, 2020 and culminates with Emily’s 36th Birthday Party and Campaign Gratitude event on Tuesday, January 12, 2021. Throughout the month, the campaign features curated content and immersive video storytelling, peer-to-peer engagement, and an online auction with one-of-a-kind experiences.
The theme is inspired by a route to the top of K2, the last of the most elite, 8,000+ meter mountains to be summited in the winter. It is a metaphor for EE’s urgent mission to speed breakthroughs and a cure for the final 10% of the CF community without targeted therapies—the final summit of CF.
