MCI x RAIDERS TIROL

Combining Sport and Education

Since 2015, the MCI and the RAIDERS Tirol share a close partnership that ranges from sponsorship and campaigns to alumni events, free tickets, and joint merchandise. The motto "Let's win together" unites two dynamic, passionate and ambitious brands that consistently celebrate international achievements. In addition, some MCI students, alumni and staff are part of the RAIDERS football, basketball and cheerleading teams and play a key role in shaping the club's success story.

Combining sports and education is a common and successful approach of universities and colleges around the world. The partnership between the RAIDERS Tirol and the Entrepreneurial School® is unique in Austria and makes use of these promising synergies. Whether in American football, basketball or cheerleading - team spirit, determination and drive are just as essential in sports as they are in education.
