CSR and sponsorship

Enea Group realises a sponsorship strategy, building the brand recognisability and supporting the implementation of strategic goals

Sponsorship as a tool for building brand recognisability

Enea Group realises promotional projects, and one of the key tools for building brand recognisability on the territory of the whole Poland is sponsorship. The Group Companies realise projects reflecting their business needs - starting from national to local ones, supporting sport, cultural and CSR activities. Core sponsorships, with the greatest reach, are centralised in Enea SA, building the brand coverage and supporting marketing activities. Sponsorship activities realised by subsidiaries support business goals.

In 2015, only Enea SA realised 43 sponsorship projects in 487 cities of Poland, reaching a million of direct participants of the activities. To study sponsorship efficiency specialist indices are used, such as advertising value equivalency or dedicated quantitative and qualitative studies.
