At the Sports and Leisure Innovation Agency, we have a particular emphasis on sports participation insight, stadium revenue offerings, new trends in health and fitness, sports sponsorship, business planning for investment and product development in the brand marketing, school sport, sports tech and leisure sectors.
As innovators in a number of inter related sectors, our skills lie in between sport development, sport sponsorship and sports investment as government funding changes in 2023 and big brand expectations move towards physical activity programmes, health awareness and event activation with a real social purpose.
Consumers are now changing lifestyle habits through technology so as to benefit from being more active and living longer and therefore want to see "big brands" spend more of their budgets in this changing landscape.
