Unique Program Designed Specially For Unique Professionals
What Makes This Program Unique?
Dual Relevance: Sports & Non-Sports Careers
Most sports marketing programs are strictly industry-focused, but SPODIOM’s version bridges both sports and general marketing fields. By teaching students how sports can be used as a tool to achieve broader business goals, even in non-sports companies (like banks, telecom, FMCGs), you’re expanding the program’s value beyond traditional sports careers. This dual-lens approach is rare.
Fully Project-Based with Personalized Outcomes
Unlike many theoretical or case-heavy courses, this program requires students to develop a full marketing plan tailored to their goals (startup idea, real brand case, or fictional scenario). This format makes the learning tangible, portfolio-ready, and personalized—something few competitors offer at this depth, especially in emerging markets.
Practical, Multi-Disciplinary Module Design
The program combines consumer psychology, sponsorship strategy, digital tools, event marketing, and analytics into one cohesive journey. Most comparable programs offer these topics in separate tracks or lack a project-based structure to synthesize them. This integration mirrors the real-world demands of modern marketers.
The Program Is Aimed At
Mid-career professionals in the sports industry
This includes individuals working in areas like marketing, sponsorship, ticketing, fan engagement, media relations, or event management who want to advance their careers to leadership positions within sports organizations.
Professionals transitioning into the sports industry
Individuals with experience in marketing, business development, communication, or related fields who are passionate about sports and seek to leverage their skills in this industry
Athletes looking for an off the pitch transition after retirement
Individuals with a strong understanding of the sports landscape and a desire to contribute to the industry in leadership roles beyond competition.
Brand managers from sports-related companies
