Abstract

Sport je u današnjem svijetu jedna od najpopularnijih i neisključivih sastavnica svakodnevnog
života velikog broja ljudi. Sve veći broj sudionika odlučuje se upravo za neki oblik sportske
aktivnosti u vidu ispunjenja svog slobodnog vremena, a brojni profesionalni sportaši danas su
puno više od svog zanimanja. S obzirom na svakodnevnu izloženost medijima, profesionalni
sportaši prepoznatljivi su u jako širokom krugu javnosti. Tijekom vremena sport je iz čistog
vida zabave postao globalni fenomen i svojevrsna industrija, a njegovom rastu i razvoju ne
nazire se kraj. Stoga ne začuđuje činjenica o atraktivnosti ove industrije koja privlači sve više
sudionika sa svih strana tržišta. Uz mnoge druge grane, u sportu se razvio i marketing, i to u
posebnom, specifičnom obliku. Marketing se općenito odnosi na proces razmjene između
proizvođača i potrošača s ciljem ostvarivanja profita na obostrano zadovoljstvo.
Cilj diplomskog rada je istražiti i objasniti ulogu, značenje i utjecaj različitih vrsta ugovora o
sponzorstvu na zapaženost pojedinih marki na sportskom tržištu te primjene tih ugovora u
sportskom marketingu. U radu je prikazano i objašnjeno sportsko tržište i sportski marketing, a
zatim i sponzorstvo kao jedan od ključnih alata sportskog marketinga. Objašnjeni su načini
sklapanja te su opisane različite vrste tih ugovora, kao i njihove koristi i rizici. Također,
navedeni su neki od svjetski poznatih primjera primjene sponzorskih ugovora, kao i njihov
utjecaj i rezultati. Uz to, prikazan je i razvoj sportskog marketinga i sponzorstva kroz vrijeme.
Nadalje, u radu je obrađeno i opisno, kvantitativno primarno istraživanje provedeno
strukturiranim anketnim upitnikom na određenom uzorku ljudi te su prikazani dobiveni
rezultati.
