Streaming sports startup FuboTV raises $55 million

When it comes to streaming TV, FuboTV wants to be the place sports fans go when they are looking to catch up on their favorite sports league or team. To expand its channel lineup and grow its customer base, FuboTV has raised $55 million in Series C funding led by Northzone, with participation from 21st Century Fox, Sky and Scripps Networks Interactive. That brings total funding to $75 million since being founded in 2014.

Over the last few years, we’ve seen an explosion in the number of streaming video providers entering the market. While some are just trying to re-create a smaller cable TV bundle, others — like FuboTV — are going after specific verticals of content.
