LSports taken to “new heights” with STATSCORE acquisition

LSports has significantly strengthened its data collection capabilities by acquiring Poland-based sports data company STATSCORE.

By adding STATSCORE to its portfolio, LSports has set out plans to create “unique and personalised content” for its partners.

This, LSports explained, will also offer a wider range of granular play-by-play data, as well as aggregated player and team stats.

Dotan Lazar (pictured, above), LSports Co-founder and CEO, said: “We have full confidence in STATSCORE’s products and its people. Our goal is to produce technology-based, in-depth content.

“I believe the acquisition of STATSCORE will lead us to new heights, more B2B products, personalisation, and data validation tools that will bring our accuracy level to 100%. Our goal is to double the company in all aspects in a very short period.”

The acquisition will enable LSports to expand its global footprint even further, with the takeover opening the doors to markets such as Asia, Latin America and the US.

Both companies agreed that their common goal of “bringing life” to data-powered sports products was a driving force behind their collaboration.

Dariusz Łęczyński, Chief Operations Officer at STATSCORE, added: “LSports joining forces with STATSCORE is nothing but a natural move. To us, it looked like a matter of time as we have been successful partners for a very long time now.

“Similar visions, yet different approaches to the products and data collection made each company unique. This spectacular potential created with the synergy has a chance to explode once combined together. We are absolutely thrilled about the common future.”
