Earlier this summer we spoke to the founder of Recipric, Kristen Fulmer, on what will the new sustainability in sports look like as sports implemented a plan to resume play this summer and fall.

As you can imagine, policies and advancements have moved at a breakneck pace since then and we wanted to catch up with her and see what is being implemented. Fulmer reminded us that “success” in sustainability looks vastly different across sports and on the global stage. The most important aspect of developing a sustainability strategy is having the mission resonate with the fans of the organization, without support from the base the teams serve it will always be hard to lift the strategy off the ground.

US Open’s million-plus crowd is pushing tennis into a data-ops business

Deloitte reports more than 1 million in attendance at the US Open, a scale that is driving more instrumentation. USTA is pulling startups and enterprise vendors into its stack, as Sports Business Journal coverage highlights tools ranging from unified data platforms to accessibility tech.

  • 01Million-attendance events turn personalization into integration work: with more than 1 million at the US Open, a broken identity match or delayed inventory update becomes a nightly operations issue, not an edge case.
  • 02If fan personalization is the mandate, the procurement bottleneck shifts to identity, consent and data-sharing terms across ticketing, retail and media, not model accuracy.

Uefa is selling referee sleeve ads, and it changes how brands buy football

Uefa is selling referee sleeve ads, and it changes how brands buy football

Uefa is selling branding on referees’ sleeves, starting with workwear brand Strauss, according to SportBusiness. It shifts inventory from clubs and broadcasters to the governing body. Match-day teams now own more production, compliance, and brand-safety work.

  • 01Referee kit becomes sellable inventory, which forces new governance on who approves marks, colors, and placement before matchday.
  • 02Because referees appear in every match and key moment, sleeve placements can deliver high-frequency exposure, but only if broadcast framing and graphics rules are negotiated up front.
  • 03The referee sleeve mark shifts the control point from clubs to the governing body: approvals, kit chain of custody, category-conflict rules, and broadcast measurement become the rights holder's and officiating operations' work on match day.

Presidio’s Resonate uses agentic AI to turn sports archives into searchable inventory

Presidio’s Resonate uses agentic AI to turn sports archives into searchable inventory

Presidio’s Resonate ingests and tags media for natural-language retrieval. Presidio calls archives “unsold inventory.” It pitches the tool as cutting manual tagging and speeding clip turnaround, while separate DraftKings work targeted game-day readiness.

  • 01If media ops still measure archive value by storage cost, Presidio’s framing flips it: the archive is inventory whose revenue decays by the hour after a live moment.
  • 02Resonate’s promise is labor substitution in logging and retrieval, the benchmark is fewer human touches between ingest and clip publish, not just “AI search.”
  • 03For teams and leagues already on AWS, the architectural decision shifts to governance: who owns metadata schemas, rights, and prompt access across production and sporting ops.
