  • Where will brands reach young audiences after the social media ban?
  • Which markets offer the greatest commercial opportunity for our sport or organisation?
  • How will this policy or structural change affect our audience and revenue?
  • What does the evidence say about how our target community relates to sport?
  • Which sponsorship or partnership categories genuinely align with our audience?
  • How should we adapt our strategy for a new geography or market?
