ECU Sponsorship: The Key to Powerful Marketing• According to the Sports and Event Marketing experts, the sponsors of Sports
events are the ones that make it real, by providing the necessary means for the event to take place. In return, even a minor sponsorship can multiply the measurable return on a company’s participation investment in an Sport Federation.
• Sponsoring European Chess Union along with sponsoring a certain activity is the utmost integrated and recognizable means for a company’s effective presentation, reinforcing its position among the Industry Leaders.
• Given the above, the ECU Marketing Office knows how vital it is for the marketing department of a company to select the appropriate sponsorship program and ensure return-on-investment measurable results.
• This is why ECU Marketing Office continuously works together with the sponsors, in order to examine each sponsorship’s objectives and determine the ways in which these objectives will be met.
