Data-driven partnership intelligence that helps brands and properties quantify, optimize, and maximize the value of their sponsorship and naming rights investments.
Defining, Defending, and Extracting Value
Sponsorship valuation is too often treated as a reporting exercise—focused on impressions, exposure counts, or historical benchmarks. While those metrics provide context, they rarely reflect how sponsorships actually create value in today’s market.
Innovative Partnerships Group approaches sponsorship valuation as a strategic discipline. Our work is designed to support real commercial decisions by helping rights holders and brands understand true market value, uncover hidden upside, and structure sponsorships to perform over the long term.
Valuation Built for Real Sponsorship Decisions
Our sponsorship valuation and consulting work is built to answer the questions ownership teams and the C-suite actually face:
What is this sponsorship worth today in the current market?
Where does value exist beyond traditional media exposure?
How should assets be packaged to maximize revenue and renewal leverage?
How does the sponsorship support broader business and brand objectives?
Rather than valuing assets in isolation, we evaluate sponsorships as integrated commercial platforms by combining media, experiences, intellectual property, and operational integration. This reflects how sponsorships are sold, activated, and renewed in practice.
Who We Serve
Our valuation and consulting practice supports both sides of the partnership equation:
Brands
Seeking data-backed guidance on sponsorship investments, renewals, and portfolio optimization
At the core of our valuation practice is Partnership Intelligence™, supported by Valuation 2.0—our data-driven, AI-enabled valuation engine. Advanced analytics power benchmarking, scenario modeling, and value attribution across asset classes and categories. Senior consultants then apply market insight, deal experience, and strategic judgment to translate valuation into action.
Innovative Partnerships Group’s proprietary Partnership Intelligence™ system provides the most comprehensive 360 perspective on how brands should evaluate, measure and value naming rights, sponsorships and B2B partnerships. Innovative Partnerships Group is recognized globally as one of the top agencies for its state-of-the-art multi-view process.
Our valuation and consulting services are designed to produce measurable commercial impact, not static reports. Engagements commonly focus on:

Entertainment

Healthcare
Identifying undervalued or mispriced sponsorship assets, improving packaging and tiering strategies, strengthening category and rights structures, and enhancing negotiation and renewal positioning.
In many cases, this process reveals opportunities to increase sponsorship revenue without increasing inventory. Innovative Partnerships Group simply redefines how value is structured, presented, and sold.
