The agreement marks the first basketball deal for Sportradar since the acquisition of Synergy Sports

Sportradar, a leading global provider of sports data intelligence and sport entertainment solutions, today announced a comprehensive extended agreement with Ligue Nationale de Basket (LNB). The new agreement covers data collection and distribution, AV rights, media rights distribution, bet monitoring to ensure integrity, automated production and streaming service and the continuation of the OTT platform.

The multi-year deal begins at the start of the 2021/22 season and will see Sportradar become the official data partner of the LNB.  Sportradar will collect and distribute the LNB’s in-game data through Synergy Stats, their best-in-class courtside data collection system.

Synergy Sports, now a division of Sportradar, partners with all of the LNB teams through the use of their AI driven Automated Camera System and also serves as a distribution partner for the league’s AV rights.  Synergy Sports provides basketball teams, leagues and federations with a full end-to-end technology platform that offers automated video production and graphics.

Since the 2020/21 season, Sportradar has distributed the LNB’s media rights internationally and utilised its full technological capabilities to create the OTT platform LNB.TV which showcases game action and editorial content to enhance fan engagement. Coverage is live-streamed as well as being available on-demand.

Finally, the agreement also includes the provision of Sportradar’s advanced and proven bet monitoring system, the Universal Fraud Detection System (UFDS), to monitor all LNB games for potential match manipulation. Last year, Sportradar Integrity Services detected over 500 suspicious matches across global sport and has reported more than 5,500 in the past 15 years.

David Lampitt, Managing Director, Sports Content and Partnerships at Sportradar, said: “The LNB is one of the most important basketball leagues in Europe and we look forward to expanding our relationship with them to grow the sport further and drive new commercial opportunities.

“Basketball is a strategically important sport for Sportradar, and the acquisition of Synergy Sports has extended our 360-degree capabilities in the creation and distribution of data and video content, enabling us to deepen our relationships with key basketball leagues and federations around the world. We are delighted to partner with the LNB and that they have put their trust in us to deliver advanced data, analytics and technology solutions.”

We look forward to strengthening our relationship with Sportradar for years to come.”

Fast Track Supports Employee Well-being With New Paid Menstrual Leave Policy

Fast Track is proud to announce that it has introduced Paid Menstrual Leave across its offices in Malta, Sweden, Spain, and the United States, reflecting the organisation’s commitment to employee well-being. This policy aims to recognise and address the impact of menstrual and menopause-related health in the workplace, fostering inclusivity and support.

Workplaces have historically been slow to recognise the challenges surrounding menstrual health and how they impact women’s ability to perform at their best. By implementing Menstrual Leave, the company is not only addressing a real need but also setting a standard for other employers to prioritise empathy, inclusion, and flexibility.

The efforts of the Fast Track go beyond this policy, with initiatives such as the female mentorship pilot with Signe, an internal female-only ESG group, and a series of new programs launching in 2025. Fast Track has recently been certified as a Great Place to Work® in the technology sector for the third consecutive year.

“How we feel impacts us at work, influences our working environment, and affects our colleagues. Therefore, it makes a lot of sense to me that employers should seek to spread awareness about, and normalise talking about how menstrual and menopause-related issues might affect us directly or indirectly, to ensure that the right support is in place, and when needed, appropriate workplace adjustments can be made,” says Jenny Arnell, Chief People Officer at Fast Track.

“Imagine how different our work experience would be if it was as normal to talk about how our bodies and minds affect our moods and ability to work as we do when we talk about the weather? Our reproductive systems are as normal as the weather, yet we treat these topics as something ‘private’.”

The decision follows a growing global conversation about reproductive health and its effects on work, with Spain being the first European country to adopt a Menstrual Leave policy in February 2023. Fast Track sees this as a meaningful step in creating equitable opportunities and promoting workplace health and inclusion.

Ellinor OtterWell-being & Female Empowerment Coach, remarks: “Menstrual health is often overlooked in professional spaces, even though it impacts millions of women daily. A policy like Menstrual Leave is a simple yet powerful way to affirm that employees are valued, that their needs are acknowledged, and that their health is a priority. It empowers women to listen to their bodies without shame or fear for simply being women, creating a culture of understanding and support.”

Ellinor Otter is a female empowerment coach based in Stockholm, Sweden. She has conducted a webinar with the Fast Track team, providing valuable insights and advice on managing menstruation, empowering employees to approach these conversations with openness and understanding.
