Kantar Media renews Sport Industry Awards Partnership

The Sport Industry Group has announced that Kantar Media has renewed its partnership as the official research partner of the Sport Industry Awards.

Media research company Kantar Media will once again provide logistical support to this year's event, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary. The firm will also act as category sponsor for the KantarSport Business Achievement of the Year Award, one of the judges' flagship categories of the Sport Industry Awards.

Richard Brinkman, head of KantarSport, said: "As a business that strives every day to help our clients achieve more for their respective businesses we are delighted to continue our sponsorship of the Business Achievement of the Year award."

Brinkman added: "Furthermore, it makes perfect sense that, as a business that offers its clients the broadest, best and most forward-thinking research tools in the market, we should continue to partner the Sports Industry's premier awards that recognise excellence in all facets of sports business."

KantarSport works with more than 250 sporting federations, rights holders, clubs, venues, broadcasters and sponsors around the world. A sell-out crowd of 1,500 industry representatives will gather at this year's Sport Industry Awards in London on May 11.
