Discover
Everything starts with understanding. We dig deep to uncover what makes your organisation tick: your ambitions, audiences, assets, and challenges. We ask the right questions:
- What outcomes matter most for your business?
- Who are you trying to reach, and how do they behave?
- How do your current partnerships or assets perform today?
By combining market insight, audience data and our extensive industry experience, we build a clear view of where the real value lies and how to unlock it.
We lean on robust audience and fan insight tools, including YouGov and Luscid, to gain a deeper understanding, ensuring every recommendation is grounded in how people actually engage.

- Market mapping and category prioritisation
- Measurement framework development
- Creative development
- Rights holder engagement
- Negotiation & contracting

We use specialist sponsorship intelligence to understand the competitive landscape across categories, alongside advertising insight tools to assess where brands are investing and how partnerships can complement wider media spend.

We apply a structured, data-driven process to evaluate sponsorship effectiveness through the delivery of IP Uplift, our evaluation tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
Sponsorship can be from as little as £10-20k all the way up to multi-millions. Drivers of cost are audience reach and desirability. Also, budget will need to be set aside for activating the sponsorship in order to help to maximise the value.
High-performing partnerships have shared objectives, strong activation, and consistent communication. When both sides stay aligned and invest properly, the partnership is more likely to perform.
While one-off deals can work, most meaningful partnerships run for 2–3 years or more. Time helps build deeper awareness, trust, and measurable results.
The simple answer is yes. Targeted sponsorships often deliver stronger cut-through for local or regional brands because they speak directly to a loyal, highly relevant audience.
Ideally 6-12 months out. Great sponsorships take time to plan, budget, activate, and measure properly.
