Slingshot Sponsorship wins Rights Holder Award for second year in a row

Slingshot Sponsorship, the sponsorship agency founded by Young Gun Jackie Fast, has been awarded the Rights Holder Award for the second year in a row at the 2016 European Sponsorship Awards (ESA).

The award was granted in recognition of its works with Snowboxx Music Festival, which it secured an exclusive deal with in 2014. The deal saw Slingshot act as the sole sponsorship partner for the festival, helping attract deals with major global brands.

This included additional revenue and support from the likes of Coors Light, Rockstar Energy Drink and Jungfrau, with Snowboxx going on to appoint Slingshot to complete a strategic analysis of the festival’s new, larger site in 2016.

Jackie Fast, managing director of Slingshot Sponsorship, commented:

“Absolutely delighted to win this prestigious ESA award for the second year in a row – we have always felt our exclusive work strategically securing sponsorship revenue for rights holders is a new take on a traditional model, and I’m delighted to see that work being recognised at such a high level across Europe.”
