Stratos Creative continues as creative partner of MK Dons, with the relationship entering its second year, just as the club returns to League One following promotion.
The partnership first kicked off last season, with Stratos providing creative support across the club’s branding, marketing and communications. In that time, the relationship has moved well beyond a standard supplier arrangement, developing into genuine teamwork built on shared ambition and a clear understanding of the club’s identity and goals.
Now, as MK Dons prepare for life back in League One, Stratos is delighted to continue that support through what promises to be one of the most exciting chapters in the club’s recent history. Promotion brings a bigger stage, a wider audience and fresh creative opportunities, and Stratos is looking forward to helping the club make the most of all of them.
A Growing Network of Partners
Beyond the day-to-day creative work, year one has given the Stratos team the chance to build real relationships with the wider network of MK Dons partners. Far from being a loose collection of sponsors, the network has proven to be a genuinely inclusive group of like-minded businesses, with a shared appetite for collaboration rather than simply sharing a badge.
Stratos has gotten to know fellow partners well, and ties between businesses across the network are already well under way, with new connections and joint opportunities continuing to emerge as the group gets to know one another better.
Martin Carmody, MD of Stratos, comments: “It’s been brilliant getting to know the MK Dons team and the wider partner network over the past year. The group is a genuinely inclusive mix of like-minded businesses, and the hospitality, engagement and support from everyone at the club has been fantastic. We’ve valued every part of the partnership so far, and we’re really pleased with how it’s developed. Heading into League One with the team gives us all something to be genuinely excited about, and we’re looking forward to supporting the Dons on all things creative as the new season takes shape. Exciting times ahead.”
Mark Davies, Chief Commercial Officer at MK Dons adds: “Our collaboration with Stratos has been hugely valuable. From day one, their team has demonstrated a deep understanding of our Club and our supporters, and have become a trusted extension of our creative team. We look forward to continuing our successful partnership for many years to come.”
Looking Ahead to League One
With pre-season preparations now under way, Stratos is already turning its attention to how the relationship can evolve to match the club’s new league status.
From matchday creative and brand presence, to wider marketing support, the focus remains on helping MK Dons tell its story with the same energy and ambition the club is bringing onto the pitch.
Stratos Creative looks forward to continuing to support MK Dons’ creative ambitions throughout, what is set to be, another exciting season for the club.
Stratos will be in the stands cheering them on, that’s for sure.
