Sports Analytics Services Business Market Trends and Growth Drivers

Key trends driving the Sports Analytics Services market growth are growing focus on data driven decision making in sports, rising investment in sports technology, increasing recognition of marginal gains as a game changer and growing focus on injury prevention using predictive analytics. These factors have led to growing demand for improving performance through advanced analytics solutions in sports domain. It is supported by wearable technologies, artificial intelligence in sport, video technology for post-performance analytics, performance tracking systems and the desire of sports organizations for evidence-based coaching, efficient talent identification, and competitive intelligence in the new sports technology landscape.
The need for data processing for other sports is driving operators to invest in machine learning infrastructure, platforms for real-time, multi-sport data computing, visualization tools and interfaces to existing Sports Management Systems. Such investment has been expected to improve data analysis results, and business outcomes in general, in the same way as in other sports science, medicine and performance enhancement areas.

Another way to increase financial-risk coverage is to diversify revenue. For example, income may be derived from consulting, software as a service (SaaS), licensing of software algorithms, performance-monitoring portals, software tools for analytics, training and education, long-term advisory retainers, and technology integration services.

Location is important to sport data businesses. Firms located near professional sport organizations, collegiate athletic programs, sports technology business incubators/accelerators and sport science research facilities are more likely to be successful because of the concentration of consistent clients (sport organizations) and brand visibility. Implementing advanced analytics, complying with data privacy legislation, and adhering to the standards set by sporting governing bodies are key to success.

Other factors include rapidly changing sports-tech innovation, requiring constant updates to hardware and software, competition with incumbent analytics providers and analytics departments within client organizations, reliance on client organizations to provide accurate and available data to feed analytics tools, and handling regulations around athlete data privacy and data protection obligations.

In addition to computational resources and analytics software platforms, a successful SAS business requires investment in proprietary analytical models, advanced data visualization tools, as well as dedicated teams of data scientists, sports scientists and domain experts. It should also be supported by strong marketing and branding strategies to promote brand recognition and brand trust, and build long lasting relationships with teams, coaches and athlete management companies. These businesses can contribute to sports performance by delivering perceptions, analytics, and experiences that encourage clients to adopt data-driven strategies to compete effectively.
