There are many differences between how the sports industry operates in the U.S. compared to the UK and mainland Europe, and we are here to help them navigate this territory. Decision-makers in the industry need to understand the tremendous amount of opportunities that Audazzio offers, in terms of being able to increase content and engagement of fans while offering the ability to monetize this new marketing channel. We will be able to communicate that to them clearly and effectively. There is strategy involved here, and The Sports Playmaker is here to get everyone on the same page so all parties can benefit.”
