UEFA and Sportradar Extend and Expand Partnership to Continue Providing Bettors and Fans with Unparalleled, Innovative Engagement
11 Juillet 2024 - 12:00PM
Sportradar Group AG (NASDAQ: SRAD) and European Football governing
body UEFA have announced a multi-year extension of their existing
exclusive betting data rights agreement, expanded to include the
non-exclusive right to distribute data to non-betting media.
Additionally, the agreement provides Sportradar access to
certain advanced tracking. This enriched data will enhance
Sportradar's cutting-edge AI products and services, enabling
Sportradar to deliver innovative technology solutions to its
clients.
The agreement covers all UEFA Club and National team
competitions. These include the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super
Cup, UEFA Europa League, UEFA Conference League, UEFA Women’s
Champions League, UEFA Women’s EURO 2025, the European Qualifiers
to the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the European Qualifiers to UEFA EURO
2028, the UEFA Nations League, the 2025 & 2027 UEFA European
Under-21 Championships, and UEFA international friendly
matches.
In total, Sportradar can now offer more than 900 high-profile
matches each season, marking a nearly 33% increase from the
previous cycle as a result of the new formats which will be
introduced for UEFA Club Competitions at the start of the 2024-25
season.
UEFA and Sportradar will also extend their long-standing
integrity partnership of 15 years. To support UEFA’s Anti
Match-Fixing Unit, the cooperation includes dedicated intelligence
and investigation resources, robust and systematic bet monitoring,
and education services to support the prevention, detection and
investigation of match-fixing.
Guy-Laurent Epstein, UEFA Marketing Director said: “Three years
ago we embarked on a journey with Sportradar to tap into the value
of match data for betting purposes. Sportradar brings to the table
a wealth of experience in this field and we are delighted to be
continuing this successful partnership for the next three years. As
part of the agreement, we will also be continuing our long-standing
cooperation to protect the integrity of UEFA and our member
associations’ competitions.”
Carsten Koerl, CEO Sportradar said: ”We are thrilled to expand
our partnership with UEFA, offering our clients and soccer fans
worldwide unparalleled engagement and value through cutting-edge
solutions and comprehensive data coverage. This agreement supports
our strategic focus on selectively investing in long-term rights
across key global sports, enabling ongoing innovation and
enhancement of our offerings.”
