Intersection of Art and Football: Brera Ilch, of the Brera Holdings Family of Soccer Clubs, Partners with Caravaggio Exhibition in Mongolia
06 Giugno 2024 - 2:00PM
Brera Holdings PLC (“Brera Holdings” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:
BREA) is pleased to announce a one-of-a-kind, highly prestigious
arts partnership between Brera Ilch, the Company’s Premier League
football club in Mongolia, and the Italian Embassy in Ulaanbaatar,
dedicated to Caravaggio's original painting “The Magdalene in
Ecstasy.” Brera is a place name for the globally renowned arts
district in the city center of Milan, Italy, and home to its
namesake Pinacoteca and Arts Academy. The Mongolian arts
partnership showcases the artistic vocation that has accompanied
Brera FC since its foundation and thus represents the cultural
fiber of the Brera FC brand.
The exhibition, sponsored by Falconeri, MIAT,
iGuzzini, Sound of Mongolia, Centro Culturale Italia-Mongolia,
DolceVita and Bettega / Beretta / Zanetti, will be held until June
30, 2024 at the Chinggis Khaan Museum in Ulaanbaatar. It will be
accompanied by a series of events featuring the iconic Italian
painter, including the screening of the film “The Shadow of
Caravaggio,” and various masterclasses and discourses on arts
restoration.
The partnership, as promoted by the Italian
Ministry of Foreign Affairs through the Ambassador to Mongolia
Giovanna Piccarreta, is in anticipation of the 55th anniversary of
diplomatic relations between the two countries in 2025.
With its deep roots in culture and the field of
art, as the Brera FC logo was designed by former Director of the
Brera Arts Academy Fernando De Filippi, Brera Holdings supports the
collaboration which will strengthen the bond between Italy and
Mongolia, along with the football activity of its local club Brera
Ilch, which competes in the Mongolian Premier League.

ABOUT BRERA HOLDINGS PLC
Brera Holdings PLC (Nasdaq: BREA) is focused on expanding its
social impact football (American soccer) business by developing a
global portfolio of emerging football and other sports clubs with
increased opportunities to earn tournament prizes, gain
sponsorships, and provide other professional football- and
sports-related consulting services.
The Company seeks to build on the legacy and brand of Brera FC,
the first football club that was acquired by the Company in 2022.
Brera FC, known as "The Third Team of Milan," is an amateur
football association which has been building an alternative
football legacy since its founding in 2000. The Company owns the
trademarked FENIX Trophy Tournament, a non-professional
pan-European football competition recognized by UEFA, inaugurated
in September 2021 and organized by Brera FC. "FENIX" is an acronym
for "Friendly European Non-professional Innovative Xenial." BBC
Sport has called the FENIX Trophy "the Champions League for
amateurs," and the 2024 FENIX Trophy finals were covered by ESPN.
In October 2022, the Internet Marketing Association at its IMPACT
22 Conference named Brera FC as its award recipient for "Social
Impact Through Soccer," recognizing the Company's focus at an
international level with this distinction.
In March 2023, the Company expanded to Africa with the
establishment of Brera Tchumene FC, a team then admitted to the
Second Division League in Mozambique, a country of nearly 32
million people. Brera Tchumene FC won its post-season tournament
and in November 2023 was promoted to Mocambola, the First Division
in Mozambique. In April 2023, the Company acquired 90% of the
European first division football team Fudbalski Klub Akademija
Pandev in North Macedonia, a country with participation rights in
two major Union of European Football Association ("UEFA")
competitions.
In June 2023, Brera acquired a strategic stake in Manchester
United PLC, a portion of which was subject to a tender offer by Sir
Jim Radcliffe and sold at a 74% realized gain. In July 2023, the
Company completed the acquisition of a majority ownership in the
Italian Serie A1 women's professional volleyball team UYBA Volley
S.s.d.a.r.l. In September 2023, the Company assumed control of
Bayanzurkh Sporting Ilch FC, a team in the Mongolian National
Premier League, which became Brera Ilch FC when the football season
resumed in March 2024. In January 2024, the Company announced the
launch of a proactive search for an Italian Serie B football club
target designed to bring multi-club ownership of the highest tiers
of professional sports ownership to mass investors through the
Company's Nasdaq-listed shares. In February 2024, the Brera
Holdings Advisory Board was established with MLS founder and World
Cup director Alan Rothenberg, luxury lifestyle executive Massimo
Ferragamo, sports business leaders Paul Tosetti and Marshall
Geller, and Italian football icon Giuseppe Rossi. Brera Holdings
PLC is focused on bottom-up value creation from undervalued sports
clubs and talent, innovation-powered business growth, and
socially-impactful outcomes. See www.breraholdings.com
