Leave a comment


Sports Innovation Lab will give Boston Unity Soccer Partners an in-depth data understanding of the Boston soccer fan market to guide brand creation, creative development, and grassroots marketing of the upcoming NWSL Boston franchise launching in 2026.

BOSTON, Nov. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Sports Innovation Lab, a leading provider of data-driven fan intelligence, research, and analysis, is proud to announce its partnership with Boston Unity Soccer Partners as it prepares to launch a new National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) team in the Boston market. Sports Innovation Lab’s expertise and guidance will be instrumental in understanding the unique opportunities within the soccer fan market in Boston and surrounding areas, as well as leveraging data effectively in the lead-up to the 2026 launch of the new sports franchise.

Boston Unity Soccer Partners principal owner Jennifer Epstein expressed her excitement about the partnership, stating, “We are thrilled to collaborate with Sports Innovation Lab as we embark on this exciting journey of launching a new and differentiated NWSL soccer team in Boston. Their deep understanding of fan behavior and expertise in leveraging data will be invaluable in helping us connect with the passionate soccer community in our city.”

Stephanie Connaughton of Boston Unity Soccer Partners added, “Sports Innovation Lab’s support in providing data, research, analysis, and strategy will play a crucial role in our decision-making processes as we aim to build a successful and engaging soccer franchise. We look forward to working closely with their team to create a fan-centric experience that resonates with the Boston market.”

The partnership between Sports Innovation Lab and Boston Unity Soccer Partners highlights a shared commitment to leveraging data and insights to drive success in the sports industry, and a shared belief that women’s sports properties require tailored strategies of their own, unique from those long deployed in legacy men’s sports. Sports Innovation Lab has designed a comprehensive mixed methods approach that leverages a variety of research tools and datasets – including proprietary transactional data that showcases the purchasing behaviors of 20 million US-based consumers, social media data to understand fan interests and sentiments, and more. This comprehensive analysis will give Boston Unity Soccer Partners an in-depth understanding of the Boston soccer fan market, and how this fanbase is unique compared to other markets in the NWSL and across sports, enabling them to tailor their strategies, enhance fan experiences, and build a strong foundation for their new NWSL soccer team.

Kerry Bradley, Chief Operating Officer at Sports Innovation Lab, emphasized the importance of data-driven decision-making in sports, especially ahead of launching a new franchise. “Starting up a new sports team requires a deep understanding of the target market and the preferences of the prospective fan base. We are excited to partner with Boston Unity Sports Partners and provide them with the necessary insights to make informed decisions. We aim to help them create a differentiated value proposition that goes beyond expectations and fosters long-term loyalty from both fans and partners.”

Abe Stein, Head of Innovation at Sports Innovation Lab, added, “Sports Innovation Lab was founded in Boston, and we have a deep and abiding love for the city and the surrounding market. Boston, Rhode Island, and all of New England have a passionate sports fan base and we are delighted to support Boston Unity Soccer Partners in their mission to bring a much-needed professional women’s soccer team to the region.”

The insights and intelligence gathered by Sports Innovation Lab will support brand creation and creative development efforts, and guide initial grassroots marketing plans. The shared goal is to be true to the fans of the area by understanding who they are and what they want in a new women’s sports franchise.

CIONCA IP WINS AT TTAB CANCELATION OF TRADEMARK REGISTRATION FOR ORANGE COUNTY CLIENT

Leave a comment


CIONCA IP filed the Petition for Cancellation to request the Board to cancel the surreptitious USPTO registration of client’s trademark by one of its former officers, which trademark the client owned and used for many years here in Orange County, California, and beyond. This trademark was an important asset for the client and naturally the client wanted to preserve its full ownership over this trademark it invested in for many years.

TTAB agreed with CIONCA IP that:

  • That the owner of a trademark is the entity that controls the use of the trademark, and a trademark application must be filed with USPTO by the owner of the trademark;
  • Copyright ownership does not translate into trademark ownership;
  • A trademark registration is invalid if there was no use in commerce of the trademark at the time the application was filed based on a use in commerce claim.

The CIONCA IP team is dedicated to giving their energy, time, and skills to helping clients that need to secure their IP rights. This has been a key priority for CIONCA IP since its founding in 2009. According to Marin Cionca, the founder of CIONCA IP, “As a former entrepreneur myself, I understand very well the value of intellectual property to our clients, and that’s why I dedicated my practice entirely to help our clients procure, enforce and restore their intellectual property rights, including by filing and defending actions at TTAB.”

For over a decade, CIONCA IP has been fortunate to successfully create a law firm that has become recognized for not only its success for clients, but also for its involvement in the local IP community and for its corporate social responsibility. “For so long as our intellectual property and trademark law firm continues winning for our clients and their businesses, we will continue to be involved in and support the IP community in Orange County and also donate a portion of our profits to charitable and non-profit organizations here in Orange County and beyond,” said Marin Cionca.

About CIONCA IP

CIONCA IP is an Orange County intellectual property law firm founded in 2009 and the firm focuses on intellectual property law, trademarks, patents, IP licensing, and copyrights. The IP legal experience of the firm’s attorney and staff is deep and extensive, enabling them to offer a full range of IP legal service of trademark and patent protection to businesses of all sizes and from diverse technical fields.

Mathew S. Rosengart, a shareholder in Greenberg Traurig, LLP’s Los Angeles office, was named a 2023 The National Law Journal (NLJ) General Litigation Trailblazer.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Mathew S. Rosengart, a shareholder in Greenberg Traurig, LLP’s Los Angeles office, was named a 2023 The National Law Journal (NLJ) General Litigation Trailblazer.

According to the publication, General Litigation Trailblazers are professionals or companies “who have moved the needle in the legal industry – those who are truly Trailblazers.”

Rosengart was selected by NLJ for his work litigating matters with far-reaching impact. This year, he obtained a major trial victory for clients Sean Penn and his global disaster relief organization CORE against the NLRB. The case raised novel questions of governmental powers over quasi-government crisis relief organizations. Rosengart’s success in the nationally watched CORE matter represented a rare and potentially precedent-setting trial victory by a private party against the government.

Rosengart has been recognized as a preeminent litigator with a national practice. Among other accolades, he has been named a media and entertainment MVP and “heavyweight attorney” by Law360, a “heavy-hitting trial lawyer” by The Legal 500, a “legal legend” who is “principled” by ABC, and a “go to litigator for Hollywood’s elite and Corporate America” by the Los Angeles Business Journal. Recognized by Los Angeles Magazine as a “winner” with “a long history of getting results for his big name clients,” NPR also acknowledged Rosengart as a lawyer with “a lot of star power.” Rosengart was previously recognized by NLJ as a Sports & Entertainment Trailblazer for obtaining the dismissal of a lawsuit against a professional athlete due to his “novel” litigation defense for that athlete. Among other awards and recognition, Rosengart recently received the “Power of Law” award from Variety and the Beverly Hills Bar Association’s Excellence in Advocacy Award. His client Sean Penn said that Rosengart is “a tough as nails streetfighter with a big brain and bigger principles.” 

About Greenberg Traurig’s Litigation Practice: Greenberg Traurig’s Litigation Practice includes a team of more than 700 attorneys. The firm’s trial lawyers regularly appear in state and federal courts throughout the country, as well as in appellate courts and before international arbitration panels. They work closely with in-house counsel to develop a strategy that best fits a litigation cost and proficiency model appropriate to the client’s unique needs and goals.

About Greenberg Traurig: Greenberg Traurig, LLP has more than 2650 attorneys in 47 locations in the United States, Europe and the Middle East, Latin America, and Asia. The firm is a 2022 BTI “Highly Recommended Law Firm” for superior client service and is consistently among the top firms on the Am Law Global 100 and NLJ 500.
