Chiliz is preparing to announce groundbreaking plans on fan ownership at the upcoming Merge Madrid conference on October 8th. Alexandre Dreyfus, the CEO of Chiliz, will present a keynote titled “From the Pitch to the Blockchain” from 13:00 to 13:30 UTC. The presentation will focus on how tokenisation of sports assets can transform fan ownership and engagement in the sports industry.
Chiliz operates as a leading digital currency platform dedicated to sports and entertainment sectors. Through its platform Socios.com, fans have the opportunity to purchase tokens connected to their favorite sports teams. These tokens grant the fans voting rights and exclusive access to decisions and merchandise related to the clubs.
The Merge Madrid conference, held at the Palacio de Congresos in Madrid, showcases innovations in blockchain technology. Here, Dreyfus plans to demonstrate how Chiliz’s blockchain ecosystem fosters a new level of interaction for sports enthusiasts globally. His talk will emphasize how fan tokens could revolutionize traditional club ownership by enabling more direct and meaningful fan involvement.
Among the audience will be sports club executives, investors, and technology enthusiasts keen to explore the latest trends in sports technology. Chiliz’s model has already gained support from prominent football clubs such as:
- FC Barcelona
- Paris Saint-Germain
- Juventus
These partnerships have enhanced fan engagement through blockchain-powered experiences.
The conference session is timely, correlating with the growing interest in cryptocurrency and NFTs within sports markets. Fans today desire a deeper connection to their teams beyond merely watching games. Chiliz’s approach offers fans the unique chance to:
- Shape club decisions
- Access exclusive content
- Enjoy a more participatory sporting experience
Alexandre Dreyfus stated, “We are at the forefront of integrating sports passion with blockchain technology. Our vision is to empower fans worldwide to own a piece of their teams, influence club choices, and enjoy unparalleled engagement.”
Merge Madrid aims to highlight innovative blockchain applications that could disrupt the sports and entertainment industries. Chiliz’s presentation is expected to be a key highlight, potentially driving broader adoption of crypto technologies within sports.
