Matt Del Percio, director at Altman Solon, stated, “Sports media innovation cycles are quickening. The media value chain is being disrupted by tech-driven top-down technology and user-driven bottom-up consumption trends, and sports leaders are well aware of the enormous financial opportunities. To reap the benefits of these technologies, rights holders and sports media organizations must engage in a well-defined innovation roadmap that focuses on areas with long-term growth opportunities. Furthermore, evaluating new products and understanding interdependencies among different innovation sectors will be critical for successfully navigating the changing landscape.”
