The Los Angeles Dodgers are expanding the baseball franchise’s investment arm from an accelerator to a more all-encompassing “studio”model where new startups, program graduates and partners can work together as a team to build on each other’s success.
After providing seed investments over the past few years to a number of sports tech startups, including automated video production company Keemotion, real-time basketball stats platform ShotTracker, human performance software maker Kinduct and mobile fitness app Proday Media, the Dodgers are launching a matured version of their investment arm in conjunction with digital agency R/GA.
