YOUR SUCCESS, OUR MOTIVATION

We believe in partnerships that fans remember and that the finance team can measure. Every project starts with your goal (awareness, new customers or revenue) and ends with a report that shows what you got for your money. With deep knowledge of sport, media and the UAE market, we help you choose the opportunities that really fit your brand.

What we do

SPORTS MARKETING
‍
‍

Put your brand next to a club, league, event or athlete your customers already love. We shortlist the right properties in the UAE and abroad, check audiences and prices, negotiate the deal and plan the activation, so the sponsorship works long after the logo goes up.

MEDIA MARKETING
‍

A sponsorship only pays off when people see it. We plan media around your sport partnership across TV, digital, social and outdoor, and we bring in the right production and media partners. The result is one joined-up campaign instead of separate pieces.

TALENT REPRESENTATION
‍

We represent athletes and sports personalities, including football players, and connect them with brands that match their values. For brands, we find the right ambassador and handle the contract, the content plan and the follow-up.

Why the UAE is the place for sports marketing

Few places host as much top-level sport in such a small area. Abu Dhabi has Formula 1 and UFC, Dubai has the Dubai World Cup, the DP World Tour Championship, the Dubai 7s and EuroLeague basketball, and the UAE Pro League plays every week. Brands from the region and from abroad use these moments to reach residents, tourists and audiences watching worldwide.

The market is also changing fast. New sports such as padel are growing, women's sport is getting more attention, and regulated gaming is opening new sponsorship categories. Brands that move early get the best rights at the best price.

  • Dubai World Cup

Frequently asked questions

What does a sports marketing agency do?

A sports marketing agency helps brands use sport to reach customers. At TRIX20 we find and negotiate sponsorships, plan the media around them, connect brands with athletes and measure the results.

How much does a sports sponsorship in the UAE cost?

It depends on the property and the rights you buy. A partnership with a local club or community event costs far less than a shirt or title deal with a top team or an international event. We give you real price ranges at the shortlist stage, so you can compare before you decide.

Do you only work with brands in Dubai?

No. We are based in Dubai and focus on the UAE, but we also help brands from Europe, Asia and the Americas enter the region, and UAE brands sponsor sport abroad.

Can you help iGaming brands with the UAE market?

Yes. We help operators understand the GCGRA rules, plan market entry, sign compliant sports sponsorships and grow their player base, here and in other regulated markets.

How do we start?

Book a short call. We listen to your goals and tell you honestly whether and how sport can help you reach them.
