Customized branding solutions like LED screens, banners, and arch branding were strategically placed to capture attention across the venue, ensuring sponsors had prominent exposure.

Tailored Sponsorship Solutions:

Each sponsor received a personalized branding approach, integrating their needs with innovative on-site strategies for maximum impact and audience interaction.

Results & Impact
