Rebel Ventures is a collective of high school students from the Philadelphia area who are making a huge impact in their city. What started out as an effort to bring affordable, healthy food options to Philly-area students has turned into a truly unique and inspiring community of young people who are entrepreneurial, extremely creative, and deeply dedicated to improving student’s lives, one meal at a time.

Last year I spoke with Real Madrid and Rebel Ventures about how they won the digital El Clásico by beating Barcelona to 100 million Facebook fans. But, this year, Manchester United shoots for success with a “digital experience platform” powered by HCL When I read that Man Utd has partnered with HCL Technologies to build a digital platform that will foster greater engagement with the club’s 659 million global followers and better monetize its digital channels, I felt compelled to find out more about the digital transformation of Manchester United on my daily tech podcast. 75,000 people can enter Old Trafford on match day but this is only a tiny amount of their fan base. I explore the challenges of reaching over 659 million fans in a digital world and meaningfully engaging with them all to feel part of the Man Utd family. I learn more about the ongoing digital transformation of the club and desire to provide a real-time, engaging, personalized, and unified experience to Manchester United’s 659 million global followers, which supports the club’s strategy to become a Digital Sports Enterprise. This transformation is supported by HCL’s extensive market-leading capabilities that enable global enterprises to transform their businesses for the digital age. At the heart of this transformation is the digital platform developed by HCL, providing the club with a single view of fans across web and app touchpoints, offering fans a one-stop shop for everything Manchester United. I wanted to find out more about how this platform also enables Manchester United to deliver an unparalleled and unified fan experience and continuously presents relevant club content driven by analytics in an easy to consume premium web and app experience benefitting a club with a 140-year brand heritage.    

Listen to host, Chelsey Lowe, speak with Zaire White and Jarrett Stein, two members of Rebel Ventures, a student-led food businesses shaking up breakfast in Philadelphia public schools!

Last year Real Madrid was named the fastest growing sports brand in the world, generating an incredible 1.6 billion video views. But Madrid also celebrated an off-field victory by taking the digital El Clasico Facebook crown after beating Barcelona to become the first football club in the world to reach 100 million likes on Facebook. The combination of a well-crafted digital strategy, the passion of Real Madrid fans, and the support of Real Madrid players, legends, and celebrities, helped them storm past Barcelona in the final moments to become the first sports club to reach this milestone on Facebook. The story began when Real Madrid teamed up with leading sports digital strategy and tech venture firm Rebel Ventures to win the digital title. The campaign was one of the most dramatic and widely viewed in social media history, generating over 580M media impressions across the globe. This has been a show of force by the whole Real Madrid family – I don’t think we have ever seen this type of support for anyone on the platform. To see Rafa Nadel, David Beckham, Cristiano and many others rally their fans to aid you on this historic march to 100M likes has been insane to witness. - Robert Rodriguez - Head of Global Football Partnerships Facebook Sports I invited Craig Howe, Rebel Ventures CEO and Rafael de los Santos - Global head of digital at Real Madrid onto the show to find out more.
