This week, Stade Français Paris announced that it will be using Dropbox, Dropbox Sign, and Dropbox Replay solutions to accelerate its digital transformation and optimize its content creation workflows.

“Dropbox is proud to partner with Stade Français Paris, one of the oldest and most decorated Rugby clubs in France” said David Keogh, Dropbox Regional Sales Director. “We put trust and innovation at the forefront of our company and we’re excited to see Dropbox Sign being used for new contracts and Dropbox Replay deployed to support Les Soldats Roses developing engaging fan content.”

“We needed a secure solution that would enable our teams to collaborate on large files, review and approve content seamlessly, and manage contracts as well as other legal documents,” says Thomas Lombard, CEO of Stade Français Paris. “Dropbox provides us with this solution, so we can meet deadlines in a fast-paced industry. We are delighted with this partnership, which allows us to combine our shared values around teamwork and innovation.”

Stade Français Paris noted that Dropbox will help them review and approve social content quickly so they can share news with fans in near real-time. They also plan to use Dropbox Sign to manage internal and external partner contracts, including service providers, hospitality, and sponsorships. Their marketing and communications teams says Dropbox Replay will help them review and approve video content to connect more efficiently so they can engage with fans and deepen their relationship with the club.

“We're delighted to have helped bring Stade Français Paris and Dropbox together, and look forward to supporting them in their joint activations,” says Laurent Moretti, CEO of SPORTFIVE.

About Stade Français Paris
The club was born in May 1883 from the merger of the rugby sections of two Parisian omnisports clubs, Stade Français and CASG, with both teams competing in the French Groupe B Championship. Stade Français was founded in 1883 by students from the Latin Quarter, at the café "Le Procope". On March 20, 1892, Stade Français players played Racing in the first French Championship final on the Bagatelle grounds. Refereed by Pierre de Coubertin, this first final, narrowly lost (4-3), preceded the club's first three titles (1893, 1894, 1895). With many international players in its ranks, Stade Français went on to win a total of eight national titles between 1893 and 1908, playing a major role in the introduction and spread of the sport. CASG, founded in 1903 and winner of the Challenge de l'Essor in 1993, has had many international players in its ranks at almost every period. Bernard Laporte (French Champion with Bègles-Bordeaux in 1991) took over the reins of the professional squad in May 1995, building up a group of experienced and determined players. The 1995-96 season was the most successful since he took over. Today, Stade

Français Paris boasts fourteen French Championship titles and one European Championship, making it the most successful French club after Stade Toulousain.
