Australian Open alt-casts and Stan Kroenke’s signature sponsorships

Leaders Sport Business Podcast

Leaders' Editorial Director James Emmett and Content Director David Cushnan share what’s worth knowing in the global sports industry this week.

In the mix: The Australian Open’s Nintendo Wii tie-up and a new breed of alt-casts to complement - and in some cases circumvent - traditional broadcast rights arrangements; the debut of 3x3 women’s basketball league Unrivaled later this week, which is taking place, like the new TGL golf series, in a brand new broadcast-first venue; the launch of Kroenke Signature Properties, to sell sponsorships across all his sports properties including the LA Rams and Arsenal; and more evidence of London’s status as an events capital, as MLB releases economic impact details of last summer’s International Series at London Stadium.
