Tether Buys Minority Stake in Serie A Football Club Juventus

By Adedapo Adesanya
Digital asset giant, Tether, has acquired a minority stake in Italian football club, Juventus, as it makes further plays into the sports investment space.
According to a statement on Friday, the investment followed the unveiling of its long-term strategic vision, which spans from leading the digital asset industry with USDt to acquiring and developing leading companies in the Artificial Intelligence (AI), bitcoin mining and biotech spaces.
Now, Tether is uniquely positioned to integrate its futuristic portfolio into the realms of the sports industry.
While blockchain technology has featured prominently in professional sports with a view to enhancing the fan experience, Tether’s acquisition of a minority ownership stake in Juventus is looking forward to delivering a sports-digital asset synergy at a new level.
Drawing from its investment arm, which sits outside of the stablecoin reserves, Tether is looking at its strategic investments in sports franchises worldwide and integrating its digital assets, payments, and newly acquired AI and biotech expertise into the sports industry and assembling a top-tier advisory team for this initiative.
In particular, Tether is collaborating with leading figures such as Mr Juan Sartori, given his involvement with Sunderland AFC, extensive tenure at AS Monaco Football Club, and the European Club Association.
This acquisition also marks a significant milestone in Tether’s goal of integrating stablecoins, digital assets, and human-first technology into everyday life.
This builds on Tether’s previous initiatives with professional sports clubs. Last year, Plan ₿, an initiative founded by Tether and the City of Lugano, announced its official sole kit sponsorship of FC Lugano, a professional football club that competes in the Swiss Super League.
This sponsorship, coupled with Tether’s minority stake in the Serie A side, also underscores Tether’s dedication to promoting blockchain technology and stablecoin adoption in mainstream sectors such as the sports industry.
“Aligned with our strategic investment in Juve, Tether will be a pioneer in merging new technologies, such as digital assets, AI, and biotech, with the well-established sports industry to drive change globally. We will explore avenues for innovative collaborations and the potential to revolutionize the global sports landscape.” said Mr Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether.
