Wasabi Technologies extended its multi-year partnership with Liverpool FC as the club’s Official Cloud Storage Partner, deploying Wasabi AiR intelligent media storage to accelerate match and social content production for a fanbase of nearly 26 million in the U.S. The Wasabi Liverpool FC cloud storage partnership generated nearly 800 million impressions during LFC’s 2024/25 title-winning season, driving a 57% year-over-year increase in awareness among business decision-maker LFC fans and a 34% rise in purchase consideration.
The partnership spans technology infrastructure, co-branded digital campaigns, in-game activations and Red Hot Beats community initiatives across Europe, Asia and North America.
Wasabi and Liverpool FC show how pairing AI-powered media storage with a globally recognized sports brand can give a technology company the kind of B2B visibility traditional enterprise marketing rarely delivers.
