In a call with co-founder
Pandascore currently works with League of Legends, FIFA, Dota 2 and soon Overwatch. The company has been working with e-sports teams, such as PSG’s League of Legends and FIFA teams. They get reports and insights to improve their skills. Competitions have also tried using Pandascore, such as the DreamHack in France or the Gamers Assembly.
But the startup slowly discovered that this kind of product made sense for betting websites. What if you could bet on the player who is going to destroy the most turrets in a League of Legends match? Pandascore hopes that betting sites in the U.K. will rely on its product to create new kinds of bets.
Tonsser, the social app for youth soccer players,
the Copenhagen-based startup that offers a vertical social network aimed at youth soccer players who want to build their own online profile and potentially get discovered by a bigger club, continues to grow at a clip, both in terms of signups but also the influence it wants to have on the beautiful game. The company is collaborating with Nike for its first brand channel, and now has 380,000 youth players registered, up from 100,000 just over a year ago mathconcept.
The Danish startup has also raised a new round of funding as it gears up for a 2018 expansion to the U.K., home to the English Premier League and a huge potential youth football market for the startup. It is also quite a fragmented one, in terms of youth leagues, so it will be interesting to see how quickly Tonsser can grow here. The app is currently live in France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Norway .
and CEO Peter Holm (and after we spent the first ten minutes catching up with the latest Tottenham Hotspur news, as we are inclined to do), he told me that Tonsser is evolving from a social app that was mainly about youth players making a profile of themselves and tracking scores and stats in order to get noticed by scouts — a bit like a real life Football Manager video game — to offer even more user-generated content where players can learn skills from each other and in turn become influencers on the platform .
