𝙁1 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙨. 𝗢𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗙1 𝗦𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗚𝗣 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱? I've been following SailGP more closely over the past couple of years. It's an impressive blend of aerodynamics and glamour all powered by nature. And the growth has been phenomenal. SailGP grew from six teams and five events to ten teams and 12 events this season. Next year at least nine of the 11 teams will be funded from the outside. The sport of sailing, except for the America's Cup regatta, has long been dismissed as a sporting property with commercial viability. But SailGP has top-tier partners, including ROLEX, Mudabala, Oracle, and Near. This has boosted the sport's exposure, notoriety, and fan following over four seasons. The stadium-style, high-speed format is a made-for-livestream sports property now reportedly broadcast in more than 200 markets. And it's unique in the fact that race attendees can see the entire course, unlike motorsports where you see cars/bikes go by once every couple of minutes. And the series will continue to grow. The recent New York event follows closely after Mubadala Capital's announcement of their plans to purchase a newly established SailGP team representing Brazil. This team, known as the Mubadala Brazil SailGP Team, will be the 11th team in the league in 2025. Furthermore, SailGP's expansion is not limited to Brazil, as Italy has also been granted a franchise by the league. Do you have a SailGP event on your to-do list? P.S., follow me Vincenzo Landino for more content on marketing and the business of speed.

It’s that time of year again for media to question the taxpayer value of the the F1 Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. According to the 2023 AGPC Annual Report Vic Gov’t invested $100.6m with an estimated total economic impact of $268m (EY, 2023 DJSIR Report). Looking beyond the economic impact report other benefits should also be considered: 1. Social impact - during Covid we experienced what life looked like without major events. Major events unite people, strengthen the community and instill a sense of pride for Victorians 2. Brand exposure - broadcast live in nearly every country in the world to millions of people provides significant brand exposure for Melbourne and Victoria. Add to that the exposure received via Drive to Survive. 3. Flow on tourism and economic benefit - exposure and awareness generated from above and positive experiences for the 81,000 interstate and international travellers (2023) puts Vic and Melb top of mind for future travel 4. Benefits to other Motorsports - our data shows that passion for F1 has had a direct positive impact on other Aust. Motorsports such as Supercars ….plus more Whether your supportive or against it, the overall benefits are hard to ignore and it’s great to have the race locked in until 2037 #sportsbusiness #sportsbiz
The Australian Grand Prix is expecting a record turnout — but how much does it benefit Victorians?

Always tied to the sea, Halifax just makes sense as a sailing destination - for racing or just a cruising sail.
Well. Done. Halifax. After an exciting weekend of wind and racing, we've proven once again that we know how to host a party - whether it's on land, sea, or in the air! From the great showing of the Canadian team, to the waterfronts lined with spectators, the weekend was amazing. A huge congratulations goes out to everyone involved in making SailGP's Canadian debut a success 👏 https://lnkd.in/e2-Kj6BP

How much impact can a single show have on the golf industry? It turns out, a massive one. We're always big supporters of opening different routes to entry into the wonderful world of golf , beyond the traditional. Sharing our love for golf in new ways has always been one of our core goals as a company. Well, Netflix has just given us another! Their hugely successful golf docuseries - 'Full Swing' - was proven to have an enormous impact on the industry, with 63% of people that watched it claiming to have gone on to watch a PGA game within 2 months of the show's release. That number is staggering. Now, with the advent of the Netflix Cup, the industry is set to receive another injection of fresh-faced golf fans, this time not just from the 'golf-curious' but from the F1 and racing fandom as well! Innovation in golf has been slow to come, but now that it's here it is setting golf up to be a more inclusive, accessible and popular worldwide in the same way that mini-golf, indoor golf and other golf-entertainment industries are. We'll definitely be tuning in, and we can't wait to host all the new golfers in our venues once they've fallen in love with the sport after the show! #heycaddy #xgolf #golfindustry #golftournament #netflixcup #netflix #minigolf

Winter…courses and Driving Ranges are closed. Golfers put their clubs in the basement and wait impatiently for spring to get going again. These days are luckily over. At least in regards to driving ranges. In fact, the winter season in particular offers enormous growth potential compared to the past. For example, why shouldn't the popular after-work tournament series continue in winter? A weekly event with a fixed day and time that also brings golf enthusiasts together in winter and thus ensures more fun, an improved offer and more turnover on the driving range. Thomas Schmidt and the Achimer Golfclub E.V. are leading the way with their ON THE RANGE WINTERLEAGUE. In November, over 400 9-hole rounds were already played on the selected virtual course and a good 40,000 more balls were hit compared to previous years. Needless to say, the members love this new offer. A classic win-win-win situation. This is just one of the countless opportunities that the Trackman Range System offers our facilities. As the Customer Success Team, we support the facilities in identifying precisely these opportunities and then implementing them successfully. This is how we shape the future of golf together! #golf #future #events #trackman #trackmanrange #customersuccess Achim JANSEN Kenneth Pedersen Steven Carmichael Michael Malone Konstantin Waltzinger Thomas Erik Bosco Kalle Brink Nicolas Tacher Paul Williams Anders Nordby Urbano Jimenez Menendez
