The Chicago Bulls and SPORTFIVE today announced a new exclusive partnership in which the global sports business agency will lead the effort to secure brand partnerships from outside the U.S. for the team.

The NBA recently allowed each team to secure up to two brand partnerships from regions outside the U.S. As a team with significant global reach, a strong international fanbase and one of the largest social followings of any sports team in the world, the Bulls are positioned very well for international partnerships. As part of the relationship, SPORTFIVE will leverage its worldwide sales network and vast sponsorship expertise to help the Bulls secure partners from international regions.

"With more than 100 million Bulls fans around the world, we understand the importance of establishing distinct connections with all of our fans, even if they never have the chance to attend a game in person,” said Mark Levitt, Senior Director of Business Development, Chicago Bulls. “We are uniquely positioned to welcome two international brands into our Bulls portfolio of partners and look forward to the opportunities these first-of-their-kind, strategic brand partnerships will bring."

Christian Kothe, Vice President Premium Partnerships at SPORTFIVE, adds: “We are extremely enthusiastic about the partnership with the legendary Chicago Bulls and the great potential that lies within. One of the key pillars of our global business is connecting premier sports properties with big brands. With a long and illustrious track record and a worldwide fanbase, the Bulls have the potential to deliver significant value to the right brands. SPORTFIVE’s expertise will be the ideal boost to materialize all the potential.”
