“We are excited to officially introduce Venu Sports, a brand new streaming home where sports fans outside of the traditional pay-TV ecosystem can experience an incredible collection of live sports, all in one place. ” said Pete Distad, CEO of the Venu Sports streaming service. “As the readiness of our platform continues to accelerate, we are excited to announce that our platform, built from the ground up using the latest technology to engage and entertain discerning sports fans who want one-stop access to our targeted audience, We are focused on delivering best-in-class products.
