2

Module 2: Fan Segmentation & Brand Matching

Group a synthetic fanbase of 15,000+ profiles using Pandas. Segment by region, age, and engagement to identify the most valuable target audience for global sponsors.

3

Deconstruct the sponsorship hierarchy. Build a high-value media package balancing reach, context control, and a fixed €40M budget using value-based pricing models.

Module 4: Live AI Negotiation Simulator

Negotiate the deal live against an AI-driven brand representative. Protect your BATNA, anchor high, and trade concessions backed by your data model.

Handle three post-deal inbox scenarios including activation planning, a PR crisis make-good, and renewal negotiations. Manage the relationship proactively.

6

Module 6: KPI Scorecard & Performance Review

Evaluate mid-season campaign KPIs against targets. Compute actual-vs-target percentage achievement and draft a board-ready performance summary.
