COVID-19 Impact vs Opportunities for Global Sports analytics Market:
The IT industry boomed during the pandemic due to the rise in dependence on virtual communications, productivity tools, online media, entertainment, gaming, cloud-based solutions, and online banking & payment services, among others. Additionally, sports analytics has reported a rise in the demand for gambling, mainly due to higher chances of return on investments, increasing web traffic to betting platforms.
High-performance computing (HPC) technology can process data and perform complex calculations at high speeds. Sport organizations have been using HPC technology on and off the field, making it possible to analyze huge amounts of data in a single platform to make suitable decisions and changes. The solutions help track a player’s performance and identify the areas where their activity needs improvement. Technological developments are expected to shape the future of the sports industry as the accelerated digital revolution provides more possibilities for the sports sector.
Market Dynamics:
Growing Demand for Real-Time Data Access: The continuous advancements in wireless (sensor) and mobile technology are presenting new opportunities for the development of sports applications.
Increasing Demand for Predictive Insights into Fan Preferences: Fans are considered to be true brand partners for sports, and thus, there has been a rise in demand for predictive insights into fan preferences by many organizations operating in the sports and related industries to improve fan experiences and cater to them more effectively.
Availability of Cost-Effective and High-End Computing Solutions: The rapid digital innovation resulting in the availability of cost-effective and high-end computing solutions is expected to present lucrative growth opportunities for the vendors operating in the global sports analytics market.
Lack of awareness about technology in sports: Technology is a significant aspect of modern sport, with some sports such as motorsport requiring it and others using it to boost performance. Thus, the lack of awareness about the benefits of using advanced technology in sports applications is expected to act as a restraint for the growth of the global sports analytics market during the forecast period.
Lack of appropriate analytical skills: Analytical skills are required to properly use sports analytics software and make use of them to their full extent. However, the availability of individuals with such skills is low, creating a challenge in adopting and using sport analytical technologies, which is likely to create a challenge for the vendors providing the solutions.
