Organised around Olympique Lyonnais, the football club founded in 1950 and headed by Jean-Michel Aulas since 1987, OL Groupe has been a leader in media and sport-related entertainment in France since its creation in 1999.
The Group’s innovative business model combines growth, a recurrent revenue stream and durability. It is articulated around five sources of revenue:
- Ticketing
- Media rights
- Partnerships and advertising
- Brand-related revenue (derivative products, OL Images...)
- Player trading
On the pitch Olympique Lyonnais finished in the top three for the 11th consecutive year and reached the first knockout round of the UEFA Champions League, losing to Barcelona, the eventual winners.
The Club is competing in European Cup competition for the 13th consecutive year and has qualified for the UEFA Champions League for the 10th consecutive year, an achievement matched only by Real Madrid, Arsenal and Manchester United.
The women’s team confirmed its position at the top by winning the French Championship for the third consecutive year, and reaching the semi-finals of the French and European Cups. |
