Eoin Connolly is joined by SportsPro digital editor Tom Bassam and media and tech editor Steve McCaskill to review another week of sports industry news.
McCaskill looks back on his trip to the season-ending SailGP event in San Francisco, explaining the series’ sustainability incentives and its new team ownership experiment with a blockchain-enabled decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO).
Then the team discuss a US$1.4 billion stadium deal for the NFL’s Buffalo Bills, involving up to US$850 million in taxpayer funding, and compare it with nascent European projects. There’s also time for a quick take on scripted sports content and sport climbing’s Discovery deal.
