Meet The Team
Mateo Cabanettes
Founder, Director of Business Development
Hello! My name is Mateo Cabanettes, Co-Founder of Next Level Media. We specialize in helping sports clubs, leagues, and organizations of all kinds in improving their brand image through tailor-made strategies, powerful visual content and authentic storytelling.
After an initial career in the fashion industry, followed by almost ten years of involvement in Quebec amateur soccer, I completed my studies in marketing and communications before embarking on my entrepreneurial career. These intersecting paths enabled me to develop a clear vision of what it takes for a brand to stand out and shine.
Today, I put this expertise to work for those who want to innovate, strengthen their identity and engage their community.
At Next Level Media, my team and I combine creativity, rigor and tangible impact to take your image to the next level.
Meet Benjamin
Co-Founder, Creative Director
I'm a soccer executive and creative strategist with a passion for building clubs that connect both on the field and in the community. Since founding Montreal United FC in 2021, I’ve led its rise into one of Quebec’s most talked-about soccer organizations; thanks largely to my hands-on work in marketing, branding, and fan engagement.
From visual campaigns and media days to merchandise and storytelling, I’ve shaped the club’s identity from the ground up, turning it into a cultural force beyond just wins and losses.
At the same time, I acted as marketing coordinator for various semi-professional teams, where I piloted several high-impact projects, including the promotion of the Canadian championship match in 2024 against Toronto FC, bringing together over 8,000 spectators, a record attendance and the first of its kind for amateur soccer in Quebec.
With a degree in marketing, communications and media, I'm fortunate to be able to combine academic training with field experience. For me, sport is much more than a game: it's a space for vision, bonding and collective achievement.
