El próximo lunes 14 de junio a las 12:00 nuestros socios están invitados a asistir a un encuentro presencial con el Asesor del Gabinete del Presidente del Consejo Superior de Deportes, Daniel Martin, en la sede del CSD.

Como sabéis, el Plan Recuperación, Transformación y Resiliencia presentado por el Gobierno de España, contempla un Plan de fomento del sector del deporte al que se destinarán fondos de 300 millones de euros, 25% de los cuales se adjudicarán a Digitalización del Sector Deporte.

Desde el GSIC expresamos apoyo al dicho plan y su objetivo de implementar acciones de modernización de infraestructuras deportivas sostenibles, el desarrollo del acceso al deporte en zonas de riesgo de despoblación, el impulso a la transformación digital, el fomento de hábitos saludables y el desarrollo de sectores específicos que fomenten la igualdad, el deporte de base y universitario, el deporte femenino y el deporte inclusivo.

Creemos que estos objetivos van a dinamizar y modernizar el sector y generar un mercado exterior para la estructura del deporte, y que tanto GSIC como nuestros socios pueden aportar gran valor en la ejecución del dicho plan.

Por ello, nos gustaría contar con vosotros en el encuentro del próximo lunes para poder generar un espacio de diálogo directo entre nuestros socios y el máximo órgano del deporte español.

The social role of sport enterprises is being increasingly recognized at both local and global levels. Sport can influence community cohesion, physical and mental health, social inclusivity, and provides positive role models across society.

More businesses in sport are incorporating these social aspects into their plans as a way of differentiating themselves from their competitors. This, in turn, has led to more social innovation in sport. Recently, there has been more emphasis on social entrepreneurship in sport due to the growing need to capture its societal impact.

That´s why, we invite you to attend our next training and mentoring session on “Making impact on the sports industry through the social entrepreneurship” offered by German Otalora, LATAM Director, Microsoft Airband Initiative

You can register for the session here:

While the concept of fan engagement is nothing new, the emergence of digital technologies and the way supporters interact with their mobile devices means that there are now countless ways for sports properties to reap the rewards of building positive, direct relationships with their global fanbases.

In doing so, sports properties are accessing richer data sets which not only help them to better understand their fans, but can also be relayed to sponsors who are now far more interested in putting their name to a piece of likeable, shareable content rather than a static pitch side billboard.

That’s why, on May 4 at 16:00 (Madrid time) we invite you for our Members Solutions Showcase where we will meet solutions on New Ways for Fan Engagement Monetization and see how they are changing the industry.

In this session we will see different types of application developed by our members:

BBOX Sports – Bringing fans closer to sports teams through their app, BBox provides an augmented engagement platform that offers special tailored gift box sets of official products and experiential surprises. Great for engaging with fans, as a gift or as a tool for content and communications, BBox delivers a product that bridges the gap between official products and the digital world. They also offer a new concept where they bring replica figurines to life through Augmented Reality in the mobile app. Deliver official products and interact with fans through a new and unique data distribution platform with BBox.

Mobii advances sport experiences through technology. Providing leading edge solutions in team sport data and analytics, Live and Video on Demand content management and distribution. Creating 2nd screen fan engagement eco-systems that enable a true digital stadium experience.

Socios.com is a blockchain-based fan engagement app that enables sporting organizations to engage with and monetize their global fan bases through digital assets known as Fan Tokens. 

Fan Tokens are scalable, tradeable and generate new transparent revenue streams for football and sports organizations by tapping into the passion of millions of sport fans and crypto enthusiasts globally.  

Fans who own the tokens can vote on club-specific decisions such as choosing a jersey design, in-stadium entertainment, or picking the next charity initiatives and player skills challenges. Additionally, fans can get access to rewards, merchandise and other experiences such as VIP invitations to a meet and greet with the players, to exclusive dugout access on matchdays, and receiving signed official jerseys.
