Stadium Innovation: Supply Chain Issues Make No-Hardware Solutions A No-Brainer
A new Front Office Sports Special Report highlights this year’s huge hardware supply chain issues as a driving force behind stadium operations teams looking to IoT solutions to meet technology innovation goals.
The report, titled _IoTs Impact on the Sports Economy_, cites a McKinsey report on the growing influence of the IoT market, and points to a Bloomberg article on the growing number of out-of-stock hardware and technology items.
Front Office Sports also highlighted the Lambent intelligent software solution, and deployments at premier venues such as Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse, as a way for stadium operators to drive value with IoT technology.
