SPE DIGITAL REVOLUTION

---

We believe that sports fans around the world should have the opportunity to capitalize on both their love for sports and knowledge of athletic performance wherever their favorite teams or athletes may be. Through SPE, we aim to realize the full potential of digital investment vehicles and trading opportunities. With our unique and secure centralized platform, unlike most decentralized models, we hope to foster a regulated, compliant, and secure digital community where both sports and digital assets can interact; individuals could invest in what he/she loves and share equity in sports achievements, and community successes for decades to come. Closely following and carefully interacting with promising athletes as they become the sports legends of the future.

According to an annual study of the NFT market, the non-fungible token market grew by 299% in 2020.

Through our network, secure, instant and global financial transactions are performed using a centralized distributed ledger technology. SPE infrastructure will incorporate a real-time gross settlement system (RTGS), currency exchange, and money remittance, which will effectively connect fans and investors around the world. International banks and payment providers can connect to our platform to transact securely across fiat currencies. Faster, more efficient, reliable and secure - with complete visibility. By allowing real-time settlement of cross-border payments, sporting goods, sports apparels and sports equipment suppliers, and sports distribution networks gain direct access to a unique new global interactive marketplace of fans. Opening new opportunities for online trading of merchandising, collectibles, fundraising, hosting of auctions 'and the like'. An all-in-one digital sports ecosystem safely connecting all market participants. We consider SPE a central ecosystem for all fan sporting interactions. 

SPE athlete and fan tokens create an additional form of digital engagement for our Grand Sports Academies. Fans will be able to purchase SPE fan and athlete tokens by using our custom SPE currency. SPE currency can be purchased using debit or credit cards and traded amongst registered fans around the world. A.I. produced live feeds will keep the individual price of our SPE athlete tokens pegged to each athlete’s performance and brand value. Each athlete will have their own live and dynamic social media profile that allows fans and investors alike to interact and influence individual tokens values, making the tokens directly collateralized by trust in the individual athlete. Our fan tokens will also be available for purchase on the SPE Capital Trading platform. 

Our first-of-its-kind athlete-specific tokens promote a stronger personal relationship between our fans and athletes. It provides an opportunity for our athletes to tokenize their personal brand and allow fan investment. Ultimately offering fractional ownership in their contracts or by offering a percentage of their future earnings, or simply a 'safety cushion'. Ultimately, SPE turns traditional fan chatter into a new digital and interactive fan experience.

We believe the opportunity will help drive individual athletes success further through advertising and media campaigns, increasing their odds of being picked up by a professional sports team and landing a lucrative contract. Currently, the professional athletics and sports industries are fraught with hurdles for promising athletes from impoverished backgrounds and less economically developed countries. We aim to disrupt this trend.

Tokens will be directly tied to our social media platform, where fans can actively participate with access to athletic sports performance data (A.I. performance analysis following physical, technical, tactical, theoretical, and psychological data) stats skills, and overall performance ability supported by fan comments and opinions.  Leveraging A.I. to generate the industry's richest insights and deliver the most advanced athlete performance tracking device ever made for fans and with fan involvement.

GSI envisions that “fan tokens” in addition to athlete token will be used to encourage greater interest and participation in an athlete’s career and progression. The fan tokens would be purchased by fans through a mobile application and have value, such as to purchase merchandise through mobile application as well as enable the fan to vote and participate in certain online activities with respect to the athlete. 

As the COVID-19 pandemic has shown us, connections mean everything. Developing a token program to enable fans, friends, and family to interact with athletes and become invested in their development and success will enhance the connection that fans will have with soccer and with the GSI as a brand and destination.

This program is meant to complement the GSA and Grand Sports Complex entities, and connect them with fans through an interactive social platform. 

SPE creates the perfect environment for sports fans to take direct ownership, place live bets, initiate supporter campaigns, participate in crowdfunding opportunities, and win and engage with their favorite Grand Sports Academy athletes. 

We aim to issue as many scholarships as possible, funded by and in conjunction with our unique investment program for non-U.S. investors benefiting indirectly from U.S.E-2 visas. It is an incredibly difficult task for those from poor or disadvantaged backgrounds to participate in local athletics, events, competitions, as well as other resume building functions, which can be cost-prohibitive. 

SPE seeks to expand the potential of tokenization by applying it anywhere - allowing children of all ages, communities, and groups, fan organizations, junior sports and athletes, as well as rising sports stars, to attract investment. We seek to engage local businesses allowing them to market their brands and sponsor local sporting activities. Combining the powers of our dynamic social media platform, we look to connect and include our athletes' homes and communities to our existing journey around the world. Ranging from simple investment tokens that represent the right of a fraction of our athletes prospective future contracts (potential revenue they generate) to tokenized scholarships, advertising rights, branding, and tokenized sports infrastructure.

SPE tokens linked to our athletes, up-and-coming sports stars, and teams could become a lucrative investment modality in the future and an entertaining and exciting opportunity for fans and investors. 

According to the latest research by Signa, the global sports market is currently projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7% from $1.1 trillion in 2021, predicting 3.5 billion participants with major shifts to e-commerce in sports retail heavily impacted by COVID-19. Sports e-commerce is expected to experience double-digit compound growth rates over the next five (5) years, growing three times (3x) as fast as sports offline retail, climbing to 30% online sales share globally. The report expects 56% of all sports people will adopt wearables to take part in online training sessions, with new and more innovative direct-to-consumer opportunities paving the way for SPE. 

With SPE, promising athletes may be able to pursue their professional careers and fans could become investors no matter how small they are - investing in the athlete they believe in and the athlete they want to see succeed. 

Through SPE, traditional high-entry barriers become a thing of the past. Our dynamic and comprehensive blockchain-based crowdfunding, investment, and trading platform provides a whole new paradigm and interactive financing tool for all stakeholders of the sports industry. Serving not only our athletes, but clubs, leagues, fan organizations, events, tournaments and other sporting groups in raising the funds required for athletes to achieve athletic success. We aim to give our users greater access to these immersive and interactive experiences on our platform. Fans and users will be able to buy/trade/sell tokens. The SPE fan and athletes tokens create exchanges and enables a direct financial link between fans and athletes.
