Sports Consulting & Partnerships
We connect brands with rights holders and sporting teams with the right suppliers — building partnerships that drive real exposure, real results.
About Us
Project Eighty 5 is a specialist sports consulting firm dedicated to creating partnerships that matter. We work at the intersection of sport and business — helping brands activate in sport and helping sporting organisations run smarter commercial programs.
Whether you're a business looking to grow through sports sponsorship, or a team in need of the right teamwear supplier, we bring the connections, expertise, and process to make it happen.
What We Do
Two core specialisations. One mission: to create partnerships that deliver genuine value for every party involved.
We identify, broker and manage sponsorship and partnership opportunities between brands and sports rights holders. Whether you're a brand seeking meaningful exposure or a rights holder looking to grow your commercial revenue, we find the right fit and make it happen.
We help sporting teams and clubs connect with the right teamwear and merchandise suppliers. From running a full tender process to managing an ongoing merchandise program, we take the complexity out of procurement so your team can focus on what matters — performing.
Not sure where to start? Our consulting service helps brands and sporting organisations understand the partnership landscape, identify opportunities, and build a clear strategy before committing to anything.
