Agencies have been asked to produce a pan-European customer relationship initiative and a related advertising campaign to run across any media, that will engage consumers with the brand in an inventive and original way.
Initially, the winning agency will launch the idea on the continent before entering the UK market.
The pitch does not affect any of Adidas' existing agency relationships.
The Nike+ Experience work, created by R/GA, which won the Cyber Lion Grand Prix at Cannes in 2007 and gold at the Campaign Digital Awards the same year, was based on a partnership between Apple and Nike. The work involved the creation of a new product - a computer chip that runners could put in their trainers which sent data about speed and distance to their iPods.
It was backed by a website that allowed users to set goals, and track their progress.
