Swiss sports marketer Ringier Sports goes live

Following Ringier's acquisition of all shares in the former joint venture InfrontRingier Sports & Entertainment Switzerland, the company will operate as Ringier Sports with immediate effect. Ringier Sports will focus on the Swiss market and on marketing activities. 
 
The focus is on popular sports such as soccer and ice hockey, as well as sports that have a high number of licensed and active players. "With Ringier Sports and the new structure, we are focusing on marketing Swiss clubs and associations as well as national and international events in the Swiss market. At the same time, we are also focusing on the exploitation of commercial rights to national leagues and the future development and marketing of event and championship formats with a national character. In doing so, we can count on the long-standing knowledge of our employees and draw on a broad network of renowned and established partners," says Martin Blaser, Managing Director of Ringier Sports.
