The Bundesliga has a strong media presence, giving partner brands wide reach and strong penetration. In the Bundesliga 2, Hamburger SV had the highest reach of all teams, generating around 6.4 billion TV contacts for the club in one season.
The transfer carousel never stops. However, what remains – and what has always been there – is a decades-long partnership with the marketing agency SPORTFIVE, with sponsorship know-how and experts that have been working in this space for a substantial amount of time.

The HSV women's team will be playing in the first Bundesliga next season, and their DFB Cup semi-final appearance has ensured a record crowd at the Volksparkstadion.
Women's football is particularly attractive to sponsors because of the unique brand environment, which differs from that of men's football. Women's sport is generally considered to be more family-friendly, fairer, more authentic and more honest. By supporting the HSV women, companies can demonstrate their commitment and engage with women, families and younger audiences through compelling storytelling.
The footballers also set an example as role models: they are genuine, intelligent, straightforward and professional. This means they have the perfect qualifications to represent their sport and sponsors. They are also happy to play an active role in sponsor activations.
The lower level of commercialisation compared to men's football enables sponsors to pay lower entry-level prices and ensures they receive the undivided attention of fans.
