A Story Behind
A client is an individual entrepreneur from Latin America and a lifelong sports fan. He contacted us with an idea to build a social network for professionals, sports enthusiasts, and parties involved in the sports industry (agents, financial advisors, sponsors). Existing communities and groups in popular social networks are not numerous in the number of their members and can’t provide flexible search.
Besides, the profiles of the users are not tailored to sports. They are personal. So, the main goal of this professional network is to provide the target audience with one space for contacting each other and communicating for mutual benefit.
His long-term goal is to get funding with the MVP for the second stage of development. It implies adding fantasy sports features.

More Than Just a Solution
Sports Social App and Web Platform is a well-balanced ecosystem that inspires people to use it for their professional and personal growth, as well as for establishing valuable business connections.
Now it’s mostly designed for growing a personal brand, building a professional network, self-education, and improvement by taking courses. The rating system, time spent online, and activity of the user work for this purpose.
Advertisers are happy to find the most relevant target audience, while professional coaches can promote their courses.
For the second development phase, it’s planned to add entertainment features, such as fantasy sports.
