World Boxing Federation
President Howard Goldberg today
announced the appointment of
London-based Gianluca Di Caro as
Marketing Director of the WBF.
Mr. Di Caro, who in addition to
being the Vice President of the
Malta Boxing Commission, is a
well known boxing journalist and
photographer as well as owns and
operates the sport-specific
international marketing,
sponsorship and publicity
consultancy "JustListen2This".
The new appointment exemplifies
Mr. Goldberg and his team’s
commitment to the continuing
development of the World Boxing
Federation, as a leading player
on the world boxing scene, and
comes fast on the heels of the
recent announcement that South
Africa’s Showpony Promotions are
to host no less than six WBF
title fights on their ground
breaking ‘Urban War’ event in
Johannesburg on November 19.
Speaking earlier today from his
Cape Town office Mr. Goldberg
said:
“It is with great pleasure that
I announce the appointment of Gianluca
Di Caro as our new WBF Marketing
Director. He is well known in
the boxing world and more
importantly has over thirty
years of sports marketing and
promotion experience, both in
America and Europe. His
responsibilities will cover the
general marketing of the WBF as
well as the acquisition of
corporate sponsorship.
In addition, due to his
extensive Public Relations
pedigree and worldwide media
contacts Gianluca will also work
closely with our Media Director
Clive Baum on strategic media
campaigns whenever possible.
It’s this wealth of experience
in these areas that we believe
will be highly beneficial to the
ongoing development of the World
Boxing Federation as the most
dynamic and pro-active world
sanctioning organization
around.”
