Panel Discussion
ESPN and Sports Illustrated columnist Andrew Brandt (https://www.linkedin.com/pub/andrew-brandt/7/875/275) will lead a panel discussion about how local major league teams are using technology, mostly about mobile, for fan engagement and for back-office/player management.
The panelist lineup includes:
StubHub provides a secondary marketplace for fans and venues to buy and sell tickets to Broadway shows, football games and concerts. They recently shook up their mobile app, marking the start of a dramatic strategic overhaul as the company seeks to build a better connection with its user and make itself a resource for discovering and planning for events. Michael will show how they use data around mobile/web traffic to make business decisions.
A free service where event goers can share their photos, reviews and experiences, from their seats at live events. You can use it while researching tickets, so you know exactly what you're buying, and if there may be a better deal near by. Having a great fan experience starts here.
