Future Activities

Banke plans to leverage the partnership through country‑specific digital campaigns, approved player‑focused content, post‑tournament communications and initiatives involving clients and employees across its international network. Opportunities for collaborative player content, employee participation and client engagement will be explored within the agreed rights. The sponsorship complements Banke’s participation in property exhibitions, international roadshows and corporate social responsibility programmes, reflecting a broader approach of using sport to build familiarity and trust across borders.
