ISL & Ethernity Chain
ISL is always at the vanguard of new sports and technology trends, thus it makes only sense to be Ethernity’s first and official partner for NFT’s creations in the soccer industry.
“As a 360 sports management agency, we are continuously focused on bringing value and new opportunities to our clients and partners.NFT’s have revolutionized the digital space and they provide a uniqueness and scarcity that match perfectly with our sports properties”, explains Alex Isern, ISL co-founder and CEO.
“This strategic partnership with Ethernity will allow us to create a unique digital artwork with world-class athletes, clubs, leagues and other sports organizations.We have already locked down several sport icons and we can’t wait to release their first NFT’s collection very soon”, says Marc Segarra, ISL Managing Partner.
The first soccer NFT collection will be announced in the next few weeks with a world renowned player.
NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are “one-of-a-kind” assets in the digital world that can be bought and sold like any other piece of property, but can’t be duplicated, replaced or traded for something else, as they have no tangible form of their own.
For example: while you can exchange and trade money or bitcoins, and get the same value in return, an NFT is like a one-of-a-kind trading card, if you trade it for a different card, you will not receive the same value back. The groundbreaking revolution of NFT’s is that both physical or virtual assets, such as artwork, can be “tokenised” to create a digital certificate of ownership.
This certificate can be bought and sold, but can’t be duplicated, unlike most digital folders. NFT’s use the same technology as crypto currency: a record of who owns what is stored on a shared ledger known as the blockchain. The records cannot be forged because the ledger is maintained by thousands of computers around the world.
How much are NFT’s worth?
It is their unique non-fungible feature that makes NFT’s so special and valuable, and the reason why they have been moving millions of dollars around the globe!
The boom of the digital tokens became a reality when an animated GIF of Nyan Cat – a 2011 meme of a flying pop-tart cat – was sold for more than $500.000. The trend kept growing as musician Grimes sold some of her digital art for more than $6 million Dollars, and recently Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has promoted an NFT of the first ever evert tweet with bids hitting $2.5 million.

After a decade of providing the world’s leading sports organizations, brands, and athletes with first class marketing support the ISL founders decided it was time to establish a full on 360 marketing department which would focus on helping other industries.
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Marc Segarra one of the managing partners realized that ISL was not maximizing it’s capacity in terms of marketing services. Together with Alex Isern (ISL CEO) they decided it was time to capitalize on this opportunity since the company was facing loads of uncertainty, given the fact that the pandemic was having a rough impact on the company’s major programs. It was this very moment that led to the creation of this new department called Marketing 360.
Both Alex & Marc have always stated that service is the number one priority when it comes to ISL. The company is all about fostering & establishing long term partnerships, and this has been the case with families whose kids have attended the FC Barcelona camps throughout the years. “We have done such good work establishing proper social media campaigns together with mastering email marketing, that we need to share our level of expertise with other companies” stated Marc.
Marc insists that ISL would not be were it is today, had it not been for the support of the families whose kids have participated in the Barca academies, camps, and travel experiences. An important factor behind this new project was the fact that we want to offer marketing solutions to the families that have been with us all this years. Throughout the years, our soccer programas have enabled us the privilege of meeting executives from Fortune 500 companies to lawyers, doctors and business owners.
“We just want to thank the parents for the continues support throughout the years”. Were the words of Marc when describing the important role families have played in ISL’s success. Now we have a solution to offer parents who run small businesses or need help with marketing. Good service is an essence at ISL and we now have the tools to offer additional services not just to the families whose kids attend camp, although to the greater public.
It has different parts, but it can only perform properly when all those parts work together towards the same goal. At ISL, we enforce this interrelatedness and believe that an integrated approach is essential to attain the best results. Our 360 marketing approach takes strategies to a new level to communicate a consistent message through all the marketing mix elements. By implementing a broad strategy and the right tools, we will pursue and reach your target audience.
