Every season, rights holders and sponsors sign off on numbers that nobody can trace back to a single frame.
Fragmented
Live, streaming, highlights, news and social. Coverage is spread across more screens than any single report sees.
Self-reported
Delivery is often confirmed by the party that delivered it, across dozens of markets nobody sees end to end.
Untraceable
Exposure gets counted, not checked. When the board asks where a number came from, the trail ends.
Most measurement starts at exposure. We start earlier. And go further.
Global MMK begins by finding and verifying the right media content, then continues through audience, valuation and delivery. One chain, six connected stages, so every number can be traced back to verified evidence.

01 Monitor Find the content
02 Verify Confirm what aired

Illustrative journey · sample data
Understand the game beyond the game.
The world of sports media is complex. Making sense of it shouldn’t be.
We combine data, technology and human expertise to show you the full picture: where content is broadcast, who watches, and how brands are seen.
The platform behind every verified number.
From monitoring and feed validation to social media detection and valuation: built in-house, run in-house, reviewed by experts.
Global Media Monitoring

Live Feed Validation
Verify the feed. In real time. Worldwide.
Market feeds are checked continuously against the rights holder’s master feed. A wrong feed triggers an alert, is corrected at source and re-validated, while the match is still running.

Social Media Monitoring
Detected while the clip is still spreading.
Match footage, sponsor logos and branded inventory travel far beyond the broadcast. Feeds, posts and live streams are scanned continuously while reach is still building, so rights holders can act in time instead of reviewing the damage afterwards.
See exactly why every exposure received its value.
Every sponsorship asset is identified, qualified under the published EQS methodology and connected to the audience present at that moment, with the evidence one click away.
