LIGR Live Expands its Partnership with Genius Sports
LIGR has expanded its partnership with Genius Sports, the exclusive distributor of official NCAA data, to integrate with NCAA LiveStats.
Through this partnership with Genius Sports, LIGR will use the highest quality official NCAA data to power automated in-game graphics, real-time automatic highlights, and built-in live streaming solutions.
At launch, Lander University, based in Greenwood, South Carolina, will take advantage of this new integration.
Thomas Holland, Assistant Athletic Director for Sports Media, said: “LIGR has been a great asset for us to help improve the quality of our video streams. The customer service has been amazing, helping us to learn the software and implement it into our broadcasts. Being able to have highlights automatically clipped has been a lifesaver, and the graphics for the streams have been great.”
Competing in the Peach Belt Conference, the university will broadcast live soccer, volleyball, field hockey, and basketball using LIGR Live and NCAA LiveStats integration, with in-game graphics and official data-powered automatic highlights.
Genius Sports has worked alongside the governing body since 2018 to develop NCAA LiveStats, the official tool for the collection, management and distribution of game statistics that is used by over 4000 teams.
Oliver Wells, VP of Strategic Sports Partnerships at Genius Sports, said: “NCAA LiveStats continues to transform the college sports ecosystem, providing an incredible platform to unlock innovative products and experiences. We’re pleased to be working with LIGR, enhancing the streaming experience for fans across college sports.”
Instead of using the LIGR LiveScore app or an external data provider, users can now combine their existing NCAA LiveStats data feed with LIGR Live.
Tim Claus, LIGR Director of Sales for North America, said: “This integration makes it easy for colleges and schools across the country to get up and running with LIGR Live and continue using their existing stats solution. The ability to stream directly from LIGR Live to multiple destinations and distribute highlights to social channels is a real game-changer for college-level broadcasting.”
This agreement expands upon Genius Sports’ partnership with LIGR to integrate official FIBA LiveStats data from basketball leagues worldwide, including leagues such as the Women’s National Basketball League in Australia and the BNXT League, the national basketball competition across the Netherlands and Belgium.

Amusnet Marks Strategic Entry into North America with Ontario Licence
Amusnet is entering the North American market after securing a Gaming-Related Supplier–Manufacturer Registration from the AGCO in Ontario, Canada, marking a strategic milestone in the group’s global expansion.
Licensing grants Amusnet access to Ontario’s regulated iGaming market, which is one of the most established and fast-growing jurisdictions in North America, known for its robust regulatory framework and strong long-term growth potential.
It will allow the supplier to offer online gaming content to licensed operators in the province, officially establishing its presence in the region. Amusnet will initially roll out its iGaming portfolio, with the option to expand into Land-based solutions at a later stage.
Ontario’s regulatory framework emphasises strict compliance, ensuring that all suppliers adhere to high standards in technology, security and player protection. This makes Ontario a key benchmark market for companies entering North America. The new registration further confirms that Amusnet has successfully met these rigorous requirements for integrity and regulatory compliance, enabling it to distribute its content across the province.
“Securing the AGCO licence is an important milestone for Amusnet and reflects our long-term commitment to operating in fully regulated markets. Our entry into Ontario represents a key strategic step into North America, which is a high-priority region with strong long-term growth potential. We look forward to partnering with local operators and building a sustainable presence in the market,” said Ivo Georgiev, CEO of Amusnet.
