We\u2019re the world\u2019s largest live-event marketing platform, which enables us to deliver fan-engagement opportunities to brands across the guest journey; and we can do it on a scale that no one else can deliver.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cFans are craving live-event experiences more than ever, and brands will want to be a part of those moments. No one has the breadth of events, venues, tenant partners and boots on the ground like ASM. At a full run, there are 164 million people coming through our venues. That\u2019s more than the four major US professional sports leagues combined. We are very excited to show brand partners what we\u2019re planning.\u201d<\/p>\n Elsewhere,\u00a0Marcia Titley<\/strong>\u00a0(pictured right) has been appointed the new managing director of Eventim Sweden.
