Sponsorship Potential The Orlando Solar Bears engage with local brands through partnerships (e.g., craft brewery Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co.) and have a broad regional presence, presenting opportunities for sponsorships, co-branded activations, and exclusive beverage or merchandise collaborations to expand local reach.
Community Engagement Active in community events such as First Responders Appreciation Night and Pulse tribute jerseys, the team demonstrates a platform for cause marketing and local outreach campaigns that can be leveraged for CSR partnerships, employee engagement events, and fundraising initiatives.
Digital & Tech A diverse tech stack including modern analytics and web/mobile tools (Piwik PRO Core, Livewire, Tailwind CSS, Amazon CloudFront) indicates readiness for data-driven marketing, targeted campaigns, and personalized fan experiences that can be offered to sponsors and partners.
Fan Revenue Growth A stable venue presence at the Kia Center and playoff visibility (Kelly Cup Playoffs appearances) provide opportunities to propose loyalty programs, premium seat packages, fan engagement apps, and targeted advertising to a dedicated Southern market.
Strategic Fit As the ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Tampa Bay Lightning with ownership connected to the Orlando Magic and DeVos family, there is potential for cross-league promotions, shared sponsorship inventories, and scalable marketing partnerships across multiple regional sports properties.
