Sponsorship has been extensively used by some of the major players for many years to increase awareness of their brand, but recently the pattern of sponsorship has seen changes. Operators are having to take more care over what types of activity they sponsor, and how the activities match and support their brand values.
This report looks at the types of sponsorship undertaken by operators and how it supports their marketing objectives. It looks at the increased use of cultural activities and the use of corporate social responsibility programs to enhance and support the operators' brand values and to appeal to their target markets.
