EFL RENEWS DIGITAL BUSINESS WITH BRAVE BISON
London, October 23rd, 2017: Brave Bison, the independent digital media and social video broadcaster, announces it has successfully won a two-season deal following a competitive pitch to continue its four year relationship with the English Football League (EFL), the largest single body of professional clubs in European football.
The focus of the business will continue to be the generation of revenue across a full range of digital opportunities for EFL Digital, a collective of 58 club websites from within the League. For the first time, Brave Bison will also be working with the EFL on developing branded content for both existing and new EFL partners.

Going forward, it is particularly rewarding to now have the chance to showcase our ideation and production skills too."
