The Ticket Factory ISportconnect

Launched in June 2010, iSportconnect is an exclusive global sports business networking community that brings together 24,000 sports business professionals from around the world.

The network allows individuals to share views, and obtain access to a range of services and events.

Part of the NEC Group and now one of the UK’s leading sports and entertainment ticketing agencies, The Ticket Factory looks at ticketing from the buyer’s perspective making the online buying experience fast simple and fun whilst using data and analytics to drive the upsell and give rights-holders new levels of insight and analytics.

Having made its name in the cut-throat music and entertainment world, The Ticket Factory is increasingly growing in European sport, and has recently handled high profile, heavy demand on-sales for the European Aquatics Championships at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park; a successful Davis Cup run; Autosport international; Insomnia e-gaming tournaments and the Matchroom Sport stable of events.

The partnership will give The Ticket Factory the opportunity to position itself as a ticketing thought leader by attending networking events alongside professionals across a range of sports, as well as sponsoring leading events across the UK.

Stuart Cain, managing director for The Ticket Factory, said: “We are delighted to be an official partner of iSportconnect and raise our profile in the sporting community. The partnership will allow us to provide industry insight and advice to sports professionals, who could become prospective clients.
