With the new MLS season underway, Radhika Duggal joins Leaders’ Editorial Director James Emmett and Content Director David Cushnan to discuss the marketing activity at the centre of the league’s 30th anniversary. She explains how the season-launch Game On campaign came to life, why a Super Bowl advert was just one of many touchpoints for it and why players - as creators, brands and influencers in their own right - are increasingly at the heart of how MLS markets itself. Duggal also reflects on her first 10 months in the role. The former Pfizer, JPMorgan and Super executive shares her first impressions of the sports industry and considers what the CMO role looks like in sport versus the worlds of financial services and fintech.
