Sports
The Accelerating Growth of Media & Sports Startups program is Canada’s first-ever attempt at providing incentives for entrepreneurs who want to make it big in this industry.

We are going to see a lot of the future of sports-related businesses come from artificial intelligence, machine learning, and sophisticated data analytics. The explosive growth of the sports tech market is unlocking new revenue streams and reshaping the sports marketing industry, from automated content creation to deep fan data analytics.
Sports tech is an industry that has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, but it’s also one that offers a ray of hope. Powerful data and content tools have appealed to rights holders and brands alike.
With the arrival of 5G, growth will continue to be underpinned because it has the potential to replace satellite distribution and transform streaming and stadium concepts – including augmented reality, fan experiences, and content sharing.
The effects of the pandemic on content consumption and delivery, esports, and fan preferences have also improved the long-term prospects for sports tech.
