AC Milan have announced that they have renewed their contract with BitMEX, who will become a Premium Partner of the club too.
In a statement on the official website, Milan and BitMEX announced that they have extended their partnership, which will see them stay as the Official Cryptocurrency Trading Partner of the Rossoneri but also become a Premium Partner.
Milan and BitMEX have in fact already collaborated on numerous initiatives, from the celebration for the victory of the 19th Scudetto to the support offered to Fondazione Milan to strengthen its social commitment and promote charity events.
Casper Stylsvig, Chief Revenue Officer of AC Milan: “We are happy to continue our journey alongside a partner such as BitMEX, with whom we intend to take further steps forward in the path of digitalisation, innovation and growth of the Club, but also to support the many charitable initiatives promoted by Fondazione Milan.”
Stephan Lutz, CEO & Group CFO of BitMEX: “We are thrilled to reinforce our partnership with AC Milan. Beyond the philanthropic projects we have worked on together, we both appreciate and applaud the spirit of competition and the sense of connection that comes from it.
“At BitMEX, we strive to include connection and competition in the services and products we offer – our new social trading feature Guilds allows traders to team up as a Guild and trade against one another.”
There were some question marks surrounding what would happen with BitMEX given that Milan announced MSC Cruises as a new Premium Partner today but also the Official Sleeve Sponsor for the men’s, women’s and Primavera sides.
The agreement MSC will bring between €5-6m per season to the accounts as they will take over from the sleeve sponsor BitMEX, who will thus just be a partner.
I’m confused. They just signed a deal with MSC. So do we now have two sleeve sponsors? One on each sleeve?
