Why you should sponsor me for your next influencer campaign?

 Former professional ice hockey player. I moved my wife and kids to New Zealand over two years ago in an attempt to allow my kids to see that it’s a large world and so we could all have new experiences together. 2020 was a low point in the world for a lot of people. For me it was all about renewal. Having broken my leg and destroying my knee while playing rugby. I have a lot of downtime in the same year we all experienced a COVID-19 lockdown. I made a conscious decision to work on improving myself. First off I needed to get active. So I started running 4 weeks after my surgery. Figured I will get over the pain or get used to it. I also started a pursuit of something I always had an interest in, acting. I thoroughly enjoy this. Whether it is method/film training or theatre. It definitely takes me out of my comfort zone and challenges me.

How Genisys Credit Union Built a Multi-Year Detroit Lions Athlete Program

Genisys Credit Union, headquartered in Auburn Hills, Michigan, has done something most brands never do with athlete sponsorship: it kept renewing. What started as a single partnership with Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta has become a multi-year, two-athlete program that Genisys has renewed and expanded every season since 2024, adding Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa in 2025 and renewing him again in 2026.

Ingredient Branding Done Right: How Immunotec Made Glutathione Mainstream

Glutathione has become one of the most talked-about molecules in wellness — the “master antioxidant” that shows up in podcasts, longevity conversations, and the supplement aisle alike. But behind that mainstream moment is a brand that has spent decades making glutathione credible: Immunotec. This is the story of how OpenSponsorship helped Immunotec turn that scientific authority into everyday consumer demand — and a real-world example of what ingredient branding looks like when it’s done right.
