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

trademarked FENIX Trophy Tournament, a nonprofessional pan-European
football competition recognized by UEFA, inaugurated in September
