Genius Sports Partners With DreamHack

Sports data technology service provider Genius Sports has signed a data and integrity partnership with DreamHack, the largest digital festival in the world and host of high profile eSports tournaments. The agreement will see Genius Sports distribute data and video streaming from DreamHack’s eSports events and also help DreamHack protect its competitions from the threat of match-fixing, the companies said.

Sports data provider Genius Sports has partnered with Dreamhack to provide data and video streaming from DreamHack’s eSports events and provide match integrity services.

Genius Sports will alert DreamHack to suspicious betting patterns identified by its integrity monitoring system, which boasts an unmatched view of regulated and unregulated markets across the globe, the company said in a press release.

Genius Sports will also harness the collection of live statistics from all DreamHack-hosted eSports events to supply data-driven solutions to the media industry, as well as to offer the most accurate and reliable data services and streaming to regulated betting operators, the release said.

“We are very pleased to team up with Genius Sports and have them assisting us with our ongoing integrity work across all our pro tournaments,” Marcus Lindmark, CEO of DreamHack, said in the release. “But we’re equally excited to have them as official data partner and bring live data to their network of partners around the world.”
