Founded in 2016 and based in Bangalore, Slice is an Indian financial techno company and an app-based credit card challenger. The T20 franchise and the brand share common values and an approach which is innovative, technological and fan-centric in nature. Such kind of deal with an exuberant brand re-iterates the massive appeal that Mumbai Indians commands amongst the millennials.
โThere is definitely zero correlation between a financial product and a cricket team. However, there are a lot of similarities between two teams who are relentlessly seeking for championship. Being the most successful teams in the IPL with 5 titles to its name, Mumbai Indians inspires not only millions of its fans, but also entrepreneurs like me with the teamโs passion, focus, and persistent spirit. With cricket being at the heart of Indian culture, we will together bring more excitement to this vibrant culture as well as take it to all the cricket lovers around the world.โ
Rajan Bajaj, Founder-CEO, slice
Mumbai Indians Spokesperson said โThis deal is testament to how a millennial brand like slice trusts us as their preferred partner to connect with their young customers. It is truly about making a difference in the way cricket and financial products are perceived by our millennial and Gen Z fan base.โ
2) DHL
Besides Slice, the international express service provider DHL is also the official principle sponsor and logistics partner. Globally MIโs sponsorship marks DHLโs first ever cricketing partnership. DHL is a German logistics company providing courier, package delivery and express mail service, which is a division of the German logistic firm Deutsche Post. Prior to MI the brand has been associates with Jordan Formula one team, Manchester United football club and CEV champions league to name a few.
โAs the team behind the five-time IPL winning sports team, Mumbai Indians, our brand will be placed prominently at the back of the jersey. With this new association, we will be able to take our brand into the living rooms of a large cricket fan base that cuts across gender, age groups and geography.”
