Atlanta Braves

A good model for future market readiness and fan support is the Braves, whose management has invested in fiber networks, team-specific social apps, and a new, state-of-the-art stadium. This bodes well for the future of Atlanta baseball and for luring in huge ads to the team’s games, especially as the new amenities and luxuries allow for modern, most-welcome conveniences like 4K HD screens, on-demand ordering, and tailormade seat deliveries.

Alexa

The infamous virtual assistant of Amazon has now incorporated a Sports Update feature, allowing fans access to game schedules, real-time streams, and live score updates of the various major sports all over the world. This move makes it easier for sports fans to follow their favorite teams without shelling out money for exclusive passes.

StubHub

StubHub is keen on maximizing the use of newer IT technologies like virtual reality in the ticketing industry, its innovations fast becoming the standard for handling global sports events. Patrons now have access to upgrades on their StubHub ticketing app, from bulk reservation discounts to point rewards for regular customers and completely paperless transactions.

Nintendo

The Japanese company is leading the way in this new age of eSports by effectively taking games to the mobile platform with its Switch console. This move ensures that both casual and hardcore gamers have access to their favorite titles wherever they go, says Tyler T. Tysdal.
