The value of being part of it

Ravenna FC’s 2025 Sponsor Day strengthens its roots and forges new connections

Over one hundred local and national business organizations responded to Ravenna FC’s invitation, gathering on Saturday, November 22, at the Mercato Coperto in Ravenna for the 2025 edition of Sponsor Day, the club’s annual event dedicated to its giallorossi partners.

The event—meaningfully titled “The Value of Being Part of It”—offered a concrete opportunity for sharing, networking, and fostering a common vision, at a time of significant growth for the club both on the sporting and institutional fronts. The Mercato Coperto, partner of the initiative, managed the event setup and lunch buffet, providing an elegant setting deeply rooted in the heart of the city.

The day opened with a plenary session in which the club’s leadership—President Ignazio Cipriani, Vice President Ariedo Braida, CEO Mattia Baldassarre, General Manager Paolo Scocco, and Head of External Relations Lorenzo Tonetti—shared with attendees the growth trajectory of Ravenna FC and its future objectives. Presentations by Stefania Miscioscia (Head of Commercial Affairs) and Luca Zignani (Head of Communications) provided an in-depth look at the evolution of the club’s relationship with sponsors and detailed insights into the community following the club.

A remarkable aspect was the evolution of the club’s revenues: in just two years since the arrival of the new ownership under Cipriani–Black Duck, Ravenna FC has generated significant value, increasing commercial income by 223% and ticketing revenue by 320%.

It was a moment that highlighted Ravenna FC’s upward trajectory, the strategic value of sponsorship, and the central importance of the relationship with the territory and those who bring it to life.

The presence of the Mayor of Ravenna, Alessandro Barattoni, highlighted the importance of Ravenna FC as a resource for the territory: not only for its sporting results, but also for its ability to generate social and cultural value.

After the convivial lunch, the second part of the event was dedicated to B2B meetings among sponsors, designed to foster new commercial synergies and stimulate concrete networking and development opportunities—a highly attended activity that generated nearly 7,000 potential contacts among the participating organizations.

The 2025 Sponsor Day once again confirmed that being part of Ravenna FC means sharing a vision, building authentic relationships, and growing together. An occasion that strengthened the foundations of an increasingly solid, connected, and ambitious ecosystem.
