Stellar has a few big events coming up, the bitcoin holder giveaway and the developers build challenge are two I can think of right now. They have also been pretty good about making announcements and letting the community know what they are working on and the groups they are working with. You can find their recent blog activity and press mentions here:

Also, with the announcement of lightyear.io, I would have to guess that they will be making their own inroads with businesses soon and will generate a lot of press for Stellar.
