This episode of the Footballco Business Podcast was recorded live at Hotel MUNDIAL during the first week of Euro 2024.
This show was recorded live at Soccerex Europe and features Mike Armstrong, Juventus's Chief Marketing and Communications Officer, and Marco Castellaneta, the club’s Head of Digital Media.
Mike and Marco were on stage with Footballco's PR Manager, Paul Rayment, to discuss the Juventus Creator Lab - the club’s new approach to creation, where creatives with different talents - designers, video makers, writers, influencers, streamers, social media creators - join forces in a single production centre in the heart of the Juventus headquarters.
Both guests appeared on the podcast in 2023 when the project had just started and join us now to discuss what's happened since, the role lab in the club's broader business and media strategies and how Juventus see the future working with creators of various disciplines.
Las Vegas is always reinventing itself, and right now, it's focused on becoming the home of sports. Having recently hosted the Super Bowl, Vegas is now home to the Las Vegas Knights (NHL), the Raiders (NFL) and will soon welcome the Oakland Athletics (MLB). And that's without mentioning F1, boxing or college sports out of UNLV.
Before any of these major franchises, the Las Vegas Lights was one of only a few sports teams in the city, but it was known more for its outlandish stunts than for being a credible team.
We spoke to the new owner of the Las Vegas Lights and MLB six-time All Star, Jose Bautista about his plans for the Lights and what it's like running a club in Las Vegas as more major teams move in.
On this episode, we’re speaking with Iñigo Diaz de Cerio, International Area Manager of Real Sociedad. Iñigo joins us to talk about growing fandom at home and abroad and the impact the club’s run in the UEFA Champions League had on its brand.
Located in the Basque Country, Real Sociedad’s identity is rooted in the region. While the team now comprises of players from other regions and countries, the club still looks to bring local players through and foster a Basque identity in the team. With that in mind, we ask Inigo about the importance of the Basque identity with local fans and contrast that with the club’s growth in Japan after the signing of Takefusa Kubo in 2022.
Also, with the club making it to the UEFA Champions League Round of 16, after topping their group, we find out how that’s helped the club’s growth and affected their future ambitions in European competition.
