What is OpenSponsorship?
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in New York, OpenSponsorship operates a digital platform designed to streamline connections between individuals and sponsor opportunities within professional sports. The platform empowers right holders, including athletes, teams, leagues, and their representatives, to create free profiles. Concurrently, it offers a searchable database for potential sponsors and brands, enabling them to post anonymous requests for proposals (RFPs) that detail their specific marketing requirements. This innovative approach facilitates efficient and targeted collaborations in the sports sponsorship ecosystem.

As a late-stage company, this capital infusion is likely earmarked for enhancing platform capabilities, expanding its user base of athletes and brands, and potentially exploring new verticals within the broader sponsorship and marketing industry. The company's focus on facilitating direct connections positions it to capitalize on evolving trends in digital marketing and influencer engagement within sports.
