International indoor show jumping event with full grandstands

EventsVenturesTechnology

Building the future of the equestrian industry.

We create world-class equestrian events, launch ventures and build the technology that powers them — one industry, engineered end to end.

Equestrian Events

Great events don't happen.

They are engineered.

For over two decades, the leadership behind Equestrian Partners has created, produced and commercialised international equestrian sport — from FEI World Cup editions in Madrid to new league models and spectator-first formats. This is how we build an event, from the first idea to the last spectator.

Event Creation & Strategy

Every event begins as a business, not as a date on a calendar.

Before a single ticket exists, we define what the event is for, who pays for it and why it will still matter in five years. This blueprint is the actual sequence we run for every new property.

Madrid Horse Week, the National Equestrian League and JumpingClash all started exactly here — as a blueprint on a table.

01

Concept & Positioning

What the event should stand for, who it serves, its positioning and the role it can occupy in the market.

02

Event Architecture

Sporting programme, schedule, audience journey, hospitality, commercial areas, media requirements and operational flows — designed as one coherent experience.

03

Business Model

Revenue architecture across sponsorship, hospitality, ticketing, commercial opportunities, media and other relevant revenue streams — modelled against the economics of the event.

04

Feasibility & Venue

Venue, calendar, infrastructure, capacity, production requirements, budget and operational risk — validated before execution.

Event Production

One arena. Six operations running as one.

On show days, an international event is six simultaneous operations sharing the same square metres and the same minutes. Our job is to design them as one system.

Sport

FEI-level sport management: schedules, officials, course design coordination, stabling, vet checks and athlete services.

Sponsorship & Commercial Strategy

Turning an event into a commercial platform.

We design the commercial architecture around the event — identifying valuable assets, building the right partnership proposition, taking it to market and creating activations that deliver measurable value for brands and the event itself.

From inventory to commercial value

01

Commercial strategy

Commercial ambition, target sectors, revenue objectives and the role partnerships should play within the event.

02

Partnership proposition

Propositions built around what brands actually want to achieve — never around logo exposure alone.

03

Sales & negotiation

Targets, decision-makers, bespoke proposals and the commercial negotiation through to closing.

04

Activation

Physical, digital, hospitality, content and audience experiences that create tangible value.

05

Measurement & growth

Delivery and performance measured, value demonstrated — strengthening renewals and long-term commercial value.

Event expertise, media, technology and data — combined to create commercial assets and activations a traditional organiser cannot deliver.

Over one hundred sponsor negotiations led across eight FEI World Cup editions in Madrid.

Brand Activation

Brands don't need more visibility. They need a role.

The difference between a logo and a partnership is what the brand gets to do inside the event. We design activations around three outcomes that partners can defend in a budget meeting.

B2B hosting that closes business

Hospitality formats designed so partners bring clients, hold conversations and leave with next steps — not just photographs.

Fan experiences worth queuing for

On-site activations built into the spectator journey, from arena moments to fan zones, designed for participation rather than exposure.

Activation technology we build ourselves

Lead capture, interactive experiences, data and measurement — custom software designed for each partner, because Equestrian Partners is also a technology company.

Media & Content

One event. A season of content.

An event that only exists for the people in the venue is an underused asset. We plan the media architecture before the event, so every competition day feeds broadcast, digital and partner channels at once.

06

Event Technology

Most organisers rent technology. We build it.

Equestrian Partners is also a software company. For each event we assemble the right infrastructure — proven tools, custom software or both — and everything speaks to everything else.

Each event gets only what it needs — existing tools, custom software or both, integrated as one system.

Event Consulting

You already have an event. What needs to change?

Established events rarely need to be reinvented. They need the two or three structural fixes that unlock the next stage. These are the ones we are asked about most.

Experience

This isn't theory. We've operated it.

Two decades inside international equestrian sport — as executives, founders and operators.

Madrid Horse Week · FEI World Cup

Eight editions at the heart of one of Europe's leading indoor events.

From 2012 to 2021, the leadership behind Equestrian Partners served as Executive Director and Board Member of Madrid Horse Week — responsible for sponsorship, hospitality, ticketing, media, government relations and the development of the FEI World Cup property, with more than one hundred sponsor negotiations along the way.

National Equestrian League

Rethinking the professional league model.

As Founder & CEO of the National Equestrian League, our leadership designed a new professional show jumping league concept built on team competition, franchise ownership, FEI-compatible regulations, sponsorship, media and broadcast-first formats — a vision aligned with the team-based model that later took shape as Major League Show Jumping.

JumpingClash

Creating new ways to experience show jumping.

From concept to arena, the JumpingClash Challenge introduced a spectator-first way of experiencing show jumping, brought to life at international events in Madrid and Antwerp.
