PRLog -- According to the latest market research study published by P&S Intelligence, the global sports technology market reached a valuation of
USD 16.8 billion in 2024, and is projected to expand to
USD 76.9 billion by 2032, registering a robust
CAGR of 21.1% during the 2024–2032 period. The market's rapid growth is driven by rising investment in
fan engagement platforms,
