The Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore, in Reggio Emilia, hosted the first “Serie C Business Forum” dedicated to the partners of the Girone B teams in Serie C Sky Wifi. The initiative, designed to bring clubs and a network of sponsors and suppliers closer together, marks a symbolic step in strengthening the bridges between professional grassroots football and the regional business fabric around the Italian third division.
Without disclosing additional details about the program, this first edition focused on Girone B brought together leaders, brands and stakeholders that orbit Serie C in the same space, creating an environment conducive to sharing experiences and discussing solutions to common challenges: financial sustainability, activation of sponsorships, hospitality, match day revenue and community projects. Forums of this type also tend to promote cross-partnerships between clubs and partners, enhancing synergies in a competitive framework where every euro counts.
Serie C, the third tier of Italian football, is organized into three groups (Gironi A, B and C) of a regional nature. Girone B brings together mostly emblems from central-northern Italy, with intense local rivalries and shorter trips, factors that weigh on both sporting competitiveness and the balance of accounts. In this context, dialogue with sponsors and the professionalization of commercial and marketing areas are decisive in providing stability to projects, enhancing brands and improving the fans' experience.
The choice of Mapei Stadium – Città del Tricolore to host the match has additional significance. The Reggio Emilia venue, a modern reference in the Transalpine panorama, is home to professional football and an example of multipurpose stadium management, regularly hosting high-level matches and corporate events. The appropriate setting and strategic location make it a natural setting for business meetings linked to sport.
In practical terms, a business forum of this nature allows clubs to share good practices, from ticketing and merchandising approaches to digital and engagement strategies. For partners, it opens the door to activating sponsorships more effectively, finding new points of contact with fans and mapping opportunities for regional presence. All this in a collaborative environment, where competition on the field gives way to cooperation off it.
Without interfering with the competitive calendar, Girone B's “Serie C Business Forum” reinforces the idea that the sustainability of football increasingly involves solid networks between those who play, those who organize and those who invest. And, in a Serie C currently sponsored by Sky Wifi, the focus on proximity and networking formats can translate into competitive advantages for clubs throughout the season, on and off the pitch.
What happens next
Following the success of the first forum, it is expected that similar events will be held in the future, promoting continued dialogue between clubs and sponsors. The exchange of ideas and experiences can lead to innovations in the commercial strategies of Serie C teams, especially with regard to activating sponsorships and generating revenue on match days. The professionalization of marketing and commercial areas will be essential to guarantee the long-term viability of Girone B clubs.
