THE CHALLENGE
Redefining Fan Engagement in the Digital Age
In sports engagement, one of the main challenges is the need to foster greater connection and engagement with fans. In the lead-up to Paris 2024, Team GB, ParalympicsGB and Deloitte are seeking to rebuild their fan engagement and drive social impact. Despite the widespread popularity of the Olympic Games, there remains a need to deepen fans' understanding and appreciation of the athletes and the sports they compete in.
Similarly, while the Paralympic Games have gained momentum in recent years, there is still a significant gap in awareness and understanding of Paralympic sports among mainstream audiences. Deloitte Digital chose BrandLab360 due to their extensive web3 capabilities and talented team to create an experience that creates opportunities for fans to engage more deeply with both Olympic and Paralympic athletes and their sports.
Showcase the athleticism, skill, and determination of athletes from both the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
