Whether actively pursued or passively followed as a spectator, it is an undeniable fact that sports are a significant global economic factor. However, the industry is still on the precipice of considerable change. As a result of digitalisation, more leagues, organisations and clubs have become accessible to wider audiences & fan bases. While still beloved by many, traditional stadium attendance has become outdated; individual, digital, “smart” solution concepts have begun to become essential to maximize the experience and the success of a sporting event. Clubs and sports organisations need to restructure to reap the full benefit of this shift.
As the newest addition to the sports world, E-Sports has used digitalisation to capture and expand their younger, tech-savvy fan base. This ever-growing fan base has brought with it an impressive revenue stream, which has required the traditional-sport world to take notice. This shift away from a more traditional sports experience and toward the digital, easily accessible, virtual sports experience requires a cultural change. But despite all of that, it is an unquestionable fact that sport is and will remain a significant economic factor in the future.
