FanConnect's Brett Crossley on Reimagining the Game-Day Experience and More
16m
IPTV, digital signage, display and content technologies from FanConnect help sports organizations create great fan experiences on the TVs, tablets and video walls throughout their venue – all controlled from one unified CMS. In this SVG New Sponsor Welcome, we sit down with Brett Crossley, VP of Product, to discuss how FanConnect helps customers to “do a lot more with a lot less” by managing content across many screens, empowering non-IT teams/departments to handle their content, and reducing burdens on core IT.
FanConnect’s customer roster includes major pro sports venues like Lincoln Financial Field and MetLife Stadium, as well as major college programs like the Ohio State Buckeyes, Texas Longhorns, University of Maryland Terrapins. In order to serve this customer base, FanConnect pivoted to more modern, cloud-based architecture – as opposed to legacy hardware-centric models – that allows them to release CMS updates every two weeks.
As the industry evolves, FanConnect is looking to provide venues with tools to manage dynamic content across many screens, delegate to departments, and keep fan experience high – because the competition is not just other venues, but your own large-screen TV at home.
