E41: Small Club, Big Ideas: Driving Innovation in Football w/ Javier Jiménez Sacristán

Have you ever wondered what leading innovation initiatives at a “smaller” club is like? Javier Jiménez Sacristán is the guest on our show today and at the time of this recording, he was the Innovation Director at SD Ponferradina, a club from the Spanish second division. The conversation with him covers four main topics: Innovation and the role of technology at a football club His approach to developing the commercial strategy The evolution in technology, profit, and commercial strategy among football properties Leadership & overall lessons from Javier's career.
