Case Study: UFC expands MMA operations in Massachusetts with Dewey Square Group

UFC expands MMA in Massachusetts with Dewey Square Group, leading to 7 Boston events

Dewey Square Group represented the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in its challenge to expand its mixed martial arts operations into Massachusetts. The customer needed the state to enact a new statutory and regulatory framework for licensing and safety before it could host high-quality events.

Dewey Square Group wrote and advanced groundbreaking legislation and executed a grassroots strategy to mobilize supporters. This effort resulted in the successful passage of MMA legislation and favorable regulations. As a measurable impact, this cleared the way for UFC to host seven events in Boston as of 2023, with more planned for the future.
