LISA BERGIN

 

Lisa Bergin is the Sponsorship Manager at Aviva and manages the relationship which the brand has with the stadium that bears the company name, the IRFU and the FAI.

She spent the early part of her career at the FAI as a Brand and Communications manager before joining Teneo where she rose to become an Associate Director.

A spell in the United States working as a consultant with Bayern Munich in New York gave her an international perspective before she returned to Dublin in 2018 and took on the sponsorship mantle at Aviva in 2018.

Bringing imaginative campaigns like the Soccer Sisters with the FAI and the Sensory room and Lighting up for Pride at the Stadium to life over the last two years in the midst of the lockdown period, she has proven her mettle running one of the strongest sponsorship portfolios in Ireland.

This is the ninth edition of our Sport for Business listing of 50 Women of Influence in Irish Sport.

We are proud to do so this year with a new partner in AIG, an organisation that have pledged their commitment to equality in their partnerships with Gaelic Games, Tennis, Golf and more, for whom “Effort is Equal” and with whom we have ambitious plans to extend the reach of this annual celebration of the Women who are making a difference.

They are drawn as before from the worlds of leadership, partnership, storytelling and performance.

We began this journey in 2013 when challenged that we would never be able to produce a list of twenty Influential Women in Irish Sport. The 20 stretched to 30, then 40 and 50 and it still does not do justice to the talent that is out there.

This year once more, to keep things fresh we will introduce at least 30 per cent of fresh names from last year. That will be the hardest part to have some names replaced but if it was too easy it would be of less value.

The list we will continue to build over the coming weeks is a snapshot of those women who are making a mark on how sport is played, consumed, grown and delivered.

They are part of making the role of women in sport unexceptional by being exceptional in what they do.

Recognition of their contribution is rarely asked for but is fully deserved, and we want your help in identifying those who you feel should be among them.

So, who do you think should be on the list for 2021?
