Sportmarketing Strategie & Medien-Ökosysteme

Application fields of systemic brand strategy

Sport and media are highly complex ecosystems. Emotion, attention, rights, platforms, and monetization are tightly interconnected. This is precisely why optimizing isolated measures is not enough. Impact only emerges when Brand, Narrative, Platforms and Activation are designed and governed as a system. .


Why systemic brand strategy is critical in sport and media

Sport and media are among the most powerful communication environments of our time. At the same time, they often remain economically underutilized. Typical challenges include:

  • strong brands, but limited monetization

  • high reach, but shallow relationships

  • large volumes of content, but little steering logic

  • platforms without a clear role within the overall ecosystem

This is where systemic brand strategy proves its value: It connects emotion with structure — and impact with value creation.

Our perspective on sports marketing & media ecosystems

We do not see sport and media organizations as a special case, but as concentration of the systemic challenges modern brand leadership faces.

Here, multiple layers converge:

  • brand identity and emotional connection

  • narratives that unfold over long time horizons

  • complex platform landscapes (broadcast, streaming, digital)

  • fan and audience journeys

  • commercial interests and performance objectives

These intersections are exactly where we work.


What we bring to sports marketing & media ecosystems

Not as a separate discipline, but as the application of our system:


Who this is relevant for

Our work is relevant for:

  • rights holders

Experience from real ecosystems

  • BORA-hansgrohe pro cycling

  • INEOS 1:59 Challenge

  • Vienna City Marathon

 

Not as a collection of cases, but as experience with systems under real performance pressure.
