Orange Launches New Sponsorship Platform Orange Sponsors You - Making Fans the Stars of UEFA EURO 2016 With the Help of Zinédine Zidane, and an Exclusive With Eiffel Tower and Fan of the Match

- Orange Sponsors You - Making the fans the real stars Orange today launched its new sponsorship platform - Orange Sponsors You. While big brands focus their attention on star players, Orange Sponsors You takes an alternative approach, focusing instead on the fans because Orange believes the fans are the real stars whose support and passion are what make events like the UEFA EURO 2016 great.      (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20160414/355319LOGO )      (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20160414/355320LOGO ) Starting with its sponsorship of the UEFA EURO 2016, the ambition is to give fans the recognition they deserve by putting them centre-stage, turning the spotlight on them whilst simultaneously rewarding them for their passion. UEFA EURO 2016 will be Orange's biggest global sponsorship activation to date, offering: Orange Sponsors You has something for everyone  The promise of Orange Sponsors You is to be accessible so that everyone can feel involved, participating and not just watching. Launched through local country offers, Orange customers, including business customers, will get special offers such as internet options, data bundles, mobile TV, free calling and more, ensuring that everyone has something to celebrate, whatever the result.   In France, Orange will empower its customers with more internet to allow them to view matches on their mobile and tablets, and is creating a special edition roaming offer designed for visitors to France. Orange Holiday Europe, specifically for UEFA EURO 2016™, will include twice the usual offer in terms of Go, calls and text messages. Elsewhere across Europe, Orange countries are developing unique offers, such as offering free GB of mobile data with every goal scored in specific matches, or free movies to download every time a favourite team wins. Béatrice Mandine, executive vice president for brand and communications, Orange, commented: "UEFA Euro 2016 will be a proud moment for France, and for Orange. For us, Orange Sponsors You is an opportunity to go beyond badging and connect people with their passions. This is what inspires us and will help us to create a legacy we can celebrate long after the event has taken place. UEFA EURO 2016 is just the start." Zinédine Zidane signs on as Orange's chief scout and fan recruiter  Starring in a global TV campaign and launching from 29th May across 28 countries, Orange has signed up famous French footballer, Zinédine Zidane, to send his scouts to scour the globe to help Orange to find the world's biggest fans.
