Sports Sponsorship Forum and Brands Awards
The Sports Business Indaba will present the Sports Sponsorship Forum and Brands Awards as premier events, firstly to debate the future partnership of sports rights holders and sponsors in a post Covid-19 environment, and secondly to give recognition to the most prominent brands in South African sport.
The Sponsorship Forum will feature panel discussions with some of the country’s leading minds who will unpack the required sustainable strategies for both rights holders and brands in a changed landscape and also debate how to design new ways to optimise such commercial relationships.
The Forum will be attended by all the key decision-makers representing rights holders, sponsors, agencies, Radio & TV executives, etc.
Sports fans will be also surveyed for their favourite brands in the Sport Brands Awards, in categories covering the whole spectrum of sport codes, and the it will score each “recognised brand” a set of points, according to its respective levels of “awareness” within the consumer market.
According to Gerrit Davids, MD of Gerom Media, Sports & Entertainment (Pty) Ltd, organisers of the the Forum and Awards, “The fans’ vote will give them a real opportunity to share their liking for the most aspirational and recognised brands in all segments of sport.”
Davids says that the survey results will without a doubt determine, which “Sport Brands” are considered by consumers as the, “most liked and admired” in their respective segments.
The survey will engage sports fans requesting them to list their preferences in areas covering, “sport brands bought over the last year”, “their most liked sport brands”, as well as the “brands they admire most.”
The Index will bestow accolades in consumer categories across all major sports codes, sportswear, sport shoes, golf, equipment, accessories, retail outlets; etc.
