Probably the same goals every content owner should be considering - Adam Silver laid out his four key areas of focus regarding the #NBA's media strategy: Reach, Viewer Experience, Discoverability and Accessibility. 1. Reach: The NBA is bullish on streaming and its ability to reach a younger audience. "My hunch is we're moving into a hybrid world," says Silver. 2. Viewer experience: The commissioner's eyes light up when he talks about the future of live sports broadcasts. "The experience that most viewers have is a very passive one... What I'm most excited about is the opportunity to reinvent that. There will be a sports betting component … merchandising ... Enormous amounts of customization and personalization." 3. Discoverability: Silver seems acutely aware that today's fragmented TV/streaming environment can make it difficult to find live games. "Even when games are on widely-distributed networks, whether they're national or local, we recognize that they can be hard to find as they bounce around a lot and are not consistently in one place." 4. Accessibility: He later expanded on this idea by imagining the most accessible future imaginable... "If I'm a big fan of Victor Wembanyama, any game he's playing in would just begin on the homepage of my phone because I've set it that way. It requires zero effort on my part. Or, if you're a Pacers fan, there's no reason that when a Pacers game comes on, it shouldn't start to play on your lock screen. Or maybe you only want it beginning in the third quarter, whatever it is." https://lnkd.in/dk4KfRfU

Founder M1 Sports. Ex-Meta, Amazon, Reddit / Talks about The Business of Sports & Technology in Sports
You're about to see more sports highlights pop up on Reddit Here’s why 👇 Professional sports leagues are among the most popular subreddits on the platform. With sports one of its most popular and fastest growing interest groups. Up 26% year over year. 🔥 And more than 1,000 communities. 🔥 So they’ve struck deals with major sports leagues, including the NFL, NBA, MLB and PGA Tour. The result? More game highlights, behind-the-scenes videos, and ‘ask me anything’, sessions with players. The NFL started testing this type of content during the 2023–2024 season. Featuring Pro Bowl players and the NFL’s schedule planners. The partnership will enhance the community experience on Reddit for sure. But it’ll also enable opportunities for advertisers. Companies such as FanDuel, Samsung, Ford, and Volkswagen have already taken that opportunity. It’s a great way for advertisers to align their brands to those communities and the content within them. Exciting times. 💪 P.S. Follow me (Chris Swadling) for more sports business content! #sportsbiz #sportstech

For those who still believe sports gambling/gaming is "fringe behavior," Mickey Mouse himself just launched a Sportsbook! As a sports purist, I have mixed feelings on how pervasive sports gambling has become in our culture (although, I do game at times 😜). Whatever your personal opinion, it's inarguable that the younger generation of fans will grow up with gambling/gaming as a core fabric of sport. Here are some of the implications: - Heightened fan engagement during live games for casual fans - great for brands in a world when attention is at a premium. - Accelerated shift in fandom from team/club loyalists to "promiscuous" rooting interests. - Fans tuning into moments (that impact their bets) vs. sitting through an entire broadcast, and in turn more and more consumption on mobile devices. https://lnkd.in/eiVjG3Hv
