One of the amazing trends we have been monitoring is the explosion of machine learning into the sports space to the same degree it’s been utilized in other industries — it can be used for everything from injury analytics, to team performance, to fan engagement. Also, sports gambling will continue to be hot topic. By the end of 2018, I fully expect that we will no longer be talking about IF gambling on sports will be widely legal, but how we can continue to help our current and future clients and partners to capitalize on it in a big way.
