iSportConnect Sports Tech Index powered by SportsTech Match – 31st August
August 31, 2023
Who’s hot in Sports Tech? Who is doing deals, launching new products and generally doing some of the best work in the sector? That’s what the Index attempts to dig into. Whether established players or the up-and-coming stars, we go a little deeper for you…
Edition number seven of the sports tech index sees Fanbase (fan engagement platform) hold on to the #1 spot for the third consecutive week following another six new client announcements (including four British Basketball League clubs) in the month of August.
Genius Sports (sports data) achieve their highest position so far at #2 as a result of fresh announcements of an expanded partnership with British tabloid newspaper, The Sun, and a new partnership with the Pro Pickleball Tour. They are followed in the top 5 by Sport:80 (NGB and sports membership management) at #3, Sportradar (sports data) at #4 and both Ticketmaster (ticketing) and Seat Unique (ticketing) who ranked fifth equal.
Appearing in our top 20 for the first time are Piing (massive multiplayer games) at #17 and Iterpro (all-in-one sports data management platform) at #20, who both announced new deals in August which, on top of sustained activity over the past 12 months, was enough to get them into our top 20.
