Zilliqa Group, a leading provider of Web3 solutions and blockchain infrastructure best known for the development of the Zilliqa blockchain – a high-performance, high-security and low-fee layer-1 protocol, announced a partnership with Racing League, the premier team-based horse racing competition in the UK.

The partnership will centre on the development of an innovative and interactive Web3 fan engagement programme set to launch later this year. The programme will combine the physical aspects of horse racing with all-new virtual concepts, underpinned by Zilliqa blockchain technology. This strategic initiative is being built to bolster the global presence of Racing League and bring the revolutionary competition to an engaged international audience.

The partnership will represent the best of sporting history and new-era technology, using Web3 technologies to re-imagine fan engagement in horse racing, a sport renowned for its rich traditions and passionate global fan base. This venture is fundamental to Racing League’s ongoing strategy to reinvigorate horse racing for the next generation of fans, which has been at the forefront of innovation in the sport, by introducing a team-based competition format that has drawn participation from the world’s leading jockeys and trainers.

The programme will offer opportunities for fans to participate in owning their favourite horses, vote on important team and league decisions, compete in prediction games with tangible rewards – both physical and digital – and enjoy exclusive discounts on tickets and merchandise. These initiatives aim to deepen the bond between fans and the sport, transforming passive spectators into active participants.

The platform will also introduce a series of engaging and immersive experiences designed to bring fans closer to the thrilling world of horse racing. From behind-the-scenes access to live racing events, to direct interactions with renowned jockeys and trainers, the partnership is set to redefine the fan experience by offering unparalleled engagement opportunities in the horse racing industry.

The partnership with Racing League represents Zilliqa Group’s continued focus on the multi-billion-dollar loyalty sector across sports, esports, luxury and lifestyle. It follows the recent launch of The Pride, a bespoke fan engagement programme for European esports team Mad Lions. Utilising its market-leading blockchain technology, Zilliqa is powering a next-frontier fan engagement model that leverages the transformative potential of Web3 technologies.

Zilliqa Group CEO Matt Dyer said: “This partnership with Racing League marks a significant milestone in Zilliqa Group’s strategic expansion into the loyalty sector. As we deploy our cutting-edge technology and innovation, we are fully committed to re-imagining and levelling up the loyalty industry with Web3 technologies. The partnership offers a unique opportunity to seamlessly intertwine technology with tradition, to help redefine horse racing – in both the physical and digital realms – for fans of today and tomorrow. The journey that lies ahead is truly exciting and we look forward to forging a new path in this space together with Racing League.”

Ben Spivack, COO & Head of Partnerships at Racing League, said: “At Racing League, we recognise the importance of engaging with fans in new and innovative ways. Our partnership with Zilliqa, a leader in blockchain technology, provides us with an opportunity to heighten fan engagement, bringing an interactive dimension to our sport that aligns with the digital age.”

The digital age has unlocked a wealth of possibilities for Human Resources (HR), transforming traditional workflows into dynamic, global opportunities. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced computer technologies are no longer just enablers, they have become the go-to tools in transforming recruitment and workplace management while adhering to the creative potential of industries like marketing.

For multi-channel marketing firms like ClickOut Media, renowned for crafting stories that connect people and brands, the question is no longer if these tools can be transformative but rather how they can be used efficiently to spark innovation, enhance collaboration, and expand the global reach of their campaigns.

AI in HR

AI has revolutionised the ‘first steps’ in recruitment, from applicant sourcing to CV screening, face-to-face interviews, and beyond. Using AI tools to carry out these processes has created a more streamlined workflow, resulting in diverse and inclusive teams. For creative industries such as digital marketing, this diversity brings invaluable perspectives from various individuals that can enrich campaigns and strategies.

ClickOut Media thrives on team collaboration, and when AI is paired with the company’s ethos of encouraging charismatic and connected teams, the result is not just to foster efficiency but to invite synergy, too. It is the blend of streamlined workflow and human insight that enhances the personalisation that is critical to their storytelling success.

This raises the question: could AI increase workplace efficiency while improving human relationships and marketing campaigns?

Reaching across borders

With a global outlook and a commitment to bespoke solutions, ClickOut Media demonstrates how AI tools can enhance creativity and teamwork beyond borders. Video platforms like Google Meet, Zoom, and Teams have redefined collaboration, allowing firms to transcend geographical barriers and build partnerships across time zones.

In addition to facilitating seamless communication, AI-powered notetakers and transcription tools add another layer of efficiency to remote teamwork. By streamlining workflows and reducing manual tasks, AI not only enhances collaboration but also drives productivity across global teams.

By championing the power of AI and digital tools, ClickOut Media’s commitment has enabled the company to build and sustain a robust, fully remote workforce featuring account managers, technical leads, and marketing leads.

As a digital marketing agency that is deeply rooted in data and technology, the company has consistently excelled in its field. With years of experience and unwavering aid provided at every step—regardless of whether employees are working in an office environment—this level of support would not be possible without the use of AI.

Moreover, ClickOut Media doesn’t stop using technology to optimise workflow, it leverages these tools to embrace multicultural perspectives, ensuring campaigns resonate with diverse audiences. By integrating AI into HR practices, the company is expanding its reach while redefining global engagement and creativity standards.

Finding the perfect balance

The real challenge of AI lies not in its adoption but in its integration, navigating a way for companies to harness digitalisation tools without losing the human essence that drives personal connections and evokes out-of-the-box media strategies.

At ClickOut Media, the answer lies in finding the perfect balance. By using AI for menial tasks, like scheduling interviews or managing leave requests, HR teams can focus on what truly matters – building authentic team relationships and cultivating an environment where imagination thrives.

This approach doesn’t replace human interaction, it amplifies it and enables a company to maintain its collaborative spirit while embracing innovation, creating a workplace where employees feel connected and valued and clients experience campaigns that resonate well.

Is AI the future?

As AI reshapes the workplace, the focus shifts to the possibilities unlocked by deliberate and thoughtful tool integration. ClickOut Media is paving the way for a future where technology and humanity coexist seamlessly, and AI is steadfastly being used to empower creativity and inspire new ideas across the globe.

The future isn’t about how to adopt technology, it is about mastering its potential to transform challenges into opportunities, and ideas into impact.

So, in this new era, the choice is clear – adapt, innovate, and evolve, or risk being left behind in the wake of those who do.
