Hey Sports Tech Fans,
Apologies for missing last week’s edition. I was back traveling and was stuck in transit.
But not to fear we have a bumper edition this week with over 80 stories!
All the usual topics are here with a few new ones thrown in for good measure!
Friends of the newsletter SportTechX founders Ben and Rohn have launched the latest edition of their Global SportsTech VC report which always makes for interesting reading complete with pretty data visualisations!
Check out the top link to get your copy!
There is a bumper section this week in crypto as well as Facebook (Meta)!
Essentially there are just too many stories to cover so I will let you get on with the reading.
Thank you for the feedback on the FlipBoard magazine version of this newsletter. The outcome was essentially those who like and use FlipBoard often love it and those that are new or returning to it found it ok but not great.
Have a great sporting weekend,
Will
PS Welcome to the new subscribers who joined since the last edition!
