Infront China and the Chinese Basketball Association have renewed their partnership up to 2024, with Infront China continuing to be the exclusive global commercial agency of the Chinese national basketball teams. Infront China will exclusively deal with the global business development and promotion of the Chinese national basketball teams.
The partnership will adopt a “2-year + 4-year” model. The existing partnership is reportedly set to expire at the end of 2018.
Since 2005, Infront China have collaborated with the CBA. They also previously, looked after the exclusive commercial development of the CBA league until March 2017 but the CBA Company took back control of the commercial operations.
