Kevin Rye, Owner of Think Fan Engagement, Lecturer at University Campus of Football Business (UCFB), & Director, the Dons Trust (owners of fan-owned AFC Wimbledon)

Think Fan Engagement (TFE) was founded by Kevin Rye, an expert in Fan Engagement & the relationship between fans and clubs, and the creator of the Fan Engagement Index. TFE advises and works with owners, administrators, other rights holders (leagues, associations), brands and other organisations, who seek to understand fans and the relationships they have with their clubs.

TFE publishes the annual Fan Engagement Index, covering the top four divisions of English men’s football, and the Fan Engagement Pod(cast).

In this presentation Kevin will discuss the evolution of the Fan Engagement Index from disruptor in 2019 to industry standard in 2024. He will assess the current approaches of football clubs to the management of fan engagement by clubs and assess how the UK government’s plans to establish an independent football industry regulator might impact on the club fan-engagement function.
