Join ESA, Nielsen Sports and eToro for an exclusive digital event exploring the latest developments driving the sponsorship market now and in coming years – plus what this means for sponsorship value.
This event will include the launch of ESA’s much-anticipated Sponsorship Market Overview for 2020, with topline results presented by Andy Westlake. Produced in conjunction with Nielsen Sports using the agency’s proprietary Nielsen Sports Market Intelligence, the Sponsorship Market Overview is the definitive annual report measuring the size of the European sponsorship sector.
For the first time in 2021, the Sponsorship Market Overview will provide analysis of the effect of COVID-19 on Europe’s sponsorship sector, as well as other important developments on the sponsorship landscape, including the expected influx of sponsorship spending from China, new and emerging sponsorship categories, and much more.
Following this, ESA’s Chairman, Andy Westlake, will host a Q&A with eToro to discuss its recent partnership deal with DS TECHEETAH – is this the shape of things to come?
