CALCIO E FINANZA
In September 2019 the partnership with Calcio e Finanza has been signed, the first Italian web magazine dedicated to the economic, financial and managerial aspects of Italian football.
The Partnership among the two players will be structured on information and data-sharing as the foundations of content production, designed to different targets (from professionals to fans):
- live graphics to analyse sports events;
- infographics studying the conversations on Twitter in the main European leagues;
- integration of financial data in current reports and analysis;
- in-depth analyses to study the “AS IS” of clubs and associations under the digital and financial standpoints.
WYLAB
In May 2019 IQUII and Wylab, the first Italian Sport Tech incubator which includes Wyscout in its startup programme, join the forces to develop a knowledge and offering hub to boost the Italian sports ecosystem under the economic and cultural standpoints.
The mutual aim is to accelerate the Sport Business Transformation, in a quickly growing context in which technology represents even more the pillar of the new strategies under the fan engagement, data acquisition and monetization perspectives.
In detail, the deal is based on four main areas:
- business development;
- education;
- content marketing;
- sport tech & innovation technology.
JOHAN CRUYFF INSTITUTE
In July 2018 we signed the partnership with the Johan Cruyff Institute, “a powerful blend of professors, staff and partners who share a passion for educating the next generation of leaders in the sport business for the benefit of all athletes, sport partners, organizations and the students themselves.”
A natural, almost “physiological” deal, given the mission of both parties, even if with different perspectives: to evolve the Sport Industry towards a model considering the transformation of the modern society.
The collaboration with the JCI is focused on:
- internship opportunities for the students of the Institute;
- the sharing of digital, technological and vision know-how;
- the utilization of internally gathered data;
- the realization of educational and research projects.
