bmp-investment BETEGY (iteelabs Sp. z o.o.) on a growth course with 'Sports&Data'
- BETEGY is using current financing to expand its service internationally
and further develop its product into a comprehensive insight and
prediction platform for soccer fans
Berlin/Warsaw 11.12.2013 - With its sights firmly set on the 2014 World Cup
in Brazil, iteelabs Sp. z o.o, also known under its product name BETEGY,
has successfully concluded a financing round. bmp media investors AG (ISIN
DE0003304200) has been a shareholder in the company since June 2012.
In the financing round, the valuation of which significantly exceeds that
of bmp's initial participation from only 18 months ago, bmp's share was
slightly reduced from 30% to almost 25% by the entry of a private investor.
The newly acquired capital will be used to advance further product
development and international expansion, as well as to establish additional
B2B collaborations. So far, BETEGY has been able to win over among others
ESPN, the largest sport network in the world, as a B2B client.
The online recommendation service BETEGY has developed its existing product
offering into an all-in-one data solution that provides soccer fans with a
central access point to deeper insights on soccer matches. Furthermore,
starting in 2014, BETEGY will process more data, add other soccer leagues
to the 20 already in its portfolio, and press ahead with the corresponding
product and marketing localisation.
Jens Spyrka, Chairman of bmp media investors AG: 'BETEGY has developed a
sought-after premium product for its users and is presenting itself as an
exciting partner for international media companies, which can offer
innovative sport content to their customers with help from BETEGY. We are
delighted that top clients such as ESPN have chosen to collaborate with
BETEGY on their premium environments and look forward to other exciting
collaborations for the 2014 World Cup.'
