2024 Euroleague Basketball FanXP Playoffs are set

After 16 selected businesses showcased their products during the 2024 Euroleague Basketball FanXP Online Qualifier on July 10, eight projects have advanced to the playoff phase, which will be held at Euroleague Basketball's headquarters in Barcelona, Spain.

These eight companies will pitch their solutions to an external jury made up of four experts from the sports business industry. These individuals will be announced soon.

Afterward, the best four businesses will secure a spot at SPORTBIZ EUROPE: Barcelona Edition in October and will fight for a €10,000 prize to invest in implementing their solutions within the esteemed environments of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and BKT EuroCup.

Thirty-four applicants were cut down to 16 candidates from 12 different countries, with these companies having the chance to pitch their ideas during the Online Qualifier. The 16 startups had six minutes to pitch their projects, followed by a four-minute Q&A session with members of the jury, which consisted of four Euroleague Basketball executives: Gawain Davies, Senior Director of Corporate Partnerships and Licensing; Alex Ferrer Kristjansson, Senior Director of Marketing and Communications; Diego Fernandez Bonet, Director of Communications; and Joan Carles Ros, Senior Manager of Business Intelligence and Analytics.
