London, England – April 11, 2022 – ChallengerX PLC (AQSE: CXS), announces the signing of a first major athlete-influencer to its Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) monetization platform, CXSports. 

New Zealand rugby union legend, Liam Messam, has joined CXSports as both a client and brand ambassador. The famed 38 year-old athlete has earned 43 caps with the illustrious New Zealand All Blacks franchise and is eyeing a professional boxing career post rugby. 

With a large and growing base of social influence (400,000+ active followers across all networks), Liam stands to benefit from CXSports’ wide-reaching performance-marketing modules designed to drive incremental revenues by leveraging the influencer’s global reach on a location-agnostic basis. 

“I am excited at the prospect of working with CXSports. I was seduced by the maturity of the platform and the deep commercial sponsorship experience of the founding team. CXSports’ monetization solutions provide a concrete and actionable response to what ails us influencers: the lack of credible sponsorship opportunities that can subsidize the content that we publish and pay for. I am looking forward to a long and mutually beneficial journey together”, said Liam Messam. 

“We are thrilled at the opportunity of working together with an athlete of Liam’s caliber”, replied Lucas Caneda, COO at ChallengerX plc. “We look forward to meeting and exceeding Liam’s expectations when it comes to securing commercial sponsorship opportunities that perfectly align with Liam’s personal convictions and belief system.”
