Adissia Developers, a leading real estate developer in Tamil Nadu, has announced its strategic foray into the sports industry by acquiring the Chennai Titans franchise in the inaugural season of the Kickboxing Super League (KBSL 2025). The league is organized by Sportorama.
In a media statement, the real estate developer said the team will now be known as Adissia Chennai Titans and the move marks a significant step towards extending its brand into the dynamic world of sports and underscoring a long-term commitment to nurture athletic talent in the South Indian State of Tamil Nadu.
The acquisition, according to the press release issued on behalf of Adissia from Coimbatore, holds a special significance for the company’s leadership.
Speaking about the partnership, M.V. Manikandan, founder and Managing Director of Adissia Developers and Vice President of the Tamil Nadu State Amateur Kickboxing Association, said, “After four years of working within the kickboxing association to help grow the sport at a grassroots level, it is incredibly fulfilling to now own a franchise and contribute on such a prominent platform.”
He added that this venture was a natural progression of his passion for kickboxing and “aligns perfectly” with the brand’s growth. “I have always believed that the discipline required in the ring mirrors the core principles of business leadership–agility, strategic thinking, and resilience under pressure,” he asserted.
While highlighting the league’s potential to elevate local talent, he observed that kickboxing’s popularity was surging across Tamil Nadu and local atheletes have consistently brought glory to the State and country.
The Adissia Chennai Titans will provide a powerful platform for these aspiring athletes to showcase their skills and ascend to the next level, he added.
