Monterosa has been appointed by Carlsberg to create the interactive digital experiences for UEFA Euro 2016.

Ahead of the start of the UEFA Euros, official partner Carlsberg has announced that it will be using Monterosa’s fan engagement platform LViS to power voting & fan interaction for this year’s man of the match and goal of the round/tournament experiences.

Carlsberg has been official sponsors since 1988. This year, as a strategic part of its commitment to “do it better for the fans”, the Danish brewing company has turned to Monterosa to deliver a real-time interactive consumer experience across Facebook, Twitter, UEFA.com, the UEFA app and Carlsberg’s own football hub.

Monterosa’s fan engagement platform LViS will be used to power the live voting and fan interaction.

Richard Whitty, senior marketing manager, football, Carlsberg Group, said: “Heading into our eighth consecutive UEFA European Football Championships we are constantly challenging ourselves and our partners to bring the best possible experience to our fans across Europe and around the world. Monterosa’s unique combination of technology, solutions and innovation allows us to let the fans really be a part of making key decisions during the Euro, and we can’t wait to see them getting involved.”

Martin Majlund, head of global marketing technology, Carlsberg Group, commented: “Monterosa’s LViS platform provides us with an enterprise-grade solution that will allow millions of fans around the world to interact with the Euros on the channel of their choice. For the first time they can engage through our website, the UEFA app or on social channels, we’ll be able to aggregate their votes and hopefully create the biggest ever sporting interaction.”

Ben Barker, director of sport, Monterosa, said: “Carlsberg’s desire for technology innovation is at the heart of its approach to fan experiences, and a key factor in our new relationship with them. Since the 2012 tournament, how fans engage and interact with football has fundamentally changed, and through our work with Carlsberg we’ll ensure that fans have a clear voice and are at the centre of the action.”
