Our client is redefining sports investment through an innovative fintech-sportstech platform, providing fans with fractional ownership in major sports franchises. By combining cutting-edge blockchain technology with a fully regulated investment framework, they are unlocking a new asset class that bridges the gap between traditional sports ownership and digital financial markets.

This first-of-its-kind platform adheres to FCA (UK) and SEC (US) standards, ensuring investor security while enabling global fan participation in club equity. Positioned at the intersection of sports, fintech, and digital engagement, this company is set to capitalise on an evolving £480bn global sports market.

Traction and Achievements
First-mover advantage in regulated sports equity trading, allowing fans to invest directly in their teams.
Strategic discussions with football, rugby, and cricket governing bodies, with several clubs already in advanced talks for platform adoption.
Ongoing negotiations with major US investors, including a New York-based Family Office with strong ties to media and professional sports franchises.
Blockchain-based marketplace fully developed, with regulatory approvals in place for UK and US expansion.
Elite advisory board, including leading figures from Premier League clubs, sports media, and fintech innovation.

Competition
Traditional sports investment has long been exclusive to institutional investors and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Existing fan engagement models (such as digital memberships and merchandise) lack true ownership opportunities.

This client’s fractionalised, regulated equity model differentiates them from traditional approaches by offering real, tradeable ownership stakes in major sports entities. Their use of blockchain technology ensures transparency, security, and secondary market liquidity—features not available in current sports investment models.
