The World Football Summit Podcast E55: Embracing Innovation - The Future of Club Brugge w/Thomas Rypens
Thomas Rypens, Direct-to-Consumer Director at Club Brugge, is our guest on the show this week. Club Brugge is one of those clubs that are looking for new ways to grow revenues through technological innovation, and today you are in for a true masterclass on the mindset that is needed to embrace innovation within a football property
Thomas and I discussed:
- The countless initiatives they are testing and putting in place to improve the fan experience. Some examples include cashback initiatives, their decision to remove the ticketing offices at the stadium, becoming a cashless stadium and yes, we also discuss the role of AI.
- The process of going from data collection to insights to action plans.
- We close the conversation by talking about leadership, change management, and embracing innovation from every angle of the organization.
This episode is full of frameworks and ideas, and my guess is that you can learn from it as much as I did while recording it!
