Customer preferences: The rapid growth of social media usage and the rising popularity of influencer marketing have had a significant impact on the Basketball Media Market within the Sports Market in Bulgaria.

Local special circumstances: In Bulgaria, the Basketball Media Market has been rapidly expanding due to the countrys strong passion for the sport and its growing interest in international basketball tournaments. Additionally, the market has been influenced by the rise of digital media, particularly social media platforms, as a popular means of consuming basketball content. Furthermore, the countrys relatively small size and tight-knit community have fostered a close relationship between fans and players, resulting in a high demand for in-depth coverage and behind-the-scenes content.
