We are creating a highly innovative premium spatial computing and live entertainment experience that brings the excitement of a live sporting event to fans in their home arena—even when their team is playing elsewhere.
Fans buy tickets to an immersive virtual event that combines the atmosphere of a stadium crowd with a new way to experience the action. By hosting the same event across multiple participating arenas, the platform can expand its paying audience beyond the original venue’s capacity, creating additional opportunities for ticket sales, concessions, merchandise, and sponsorships.
The arena may be available but unused. When the team plays in another city, its home arena may sit empty if nothing else is booked. Fans still want to watch their team, creating an opportunity to bring them together at the arena.
The businesses running the event need to coordinate. Different companies may manage tickets, food, drinks, merchandise, and sponsorships using separate software. Those systems need to exchange information so fans can buy easily, orders reach the right staff, and each business receives its share of the revenue.
For example: A fan buys an away-game viewing ticket that includes a meal and a team jersey. The ticketing company, food operator, and merchandise seller must all receive the correct details and payment.
These problems are connected because a compelling viewing experience attracts fans, while coordinated business systems keep the event running smoothly and profitably.
YouBeNow shares fan experiences in three stages:
1. Remote interactive viewing parties. Bars and restaurants host live events with chat, song requests and moderator shout-outs; revenue is a venue-level share of food, drink and merchandise.
2. Entertainment networking platform. An e-commerce networking platform for the entertainment industry; working demo;
3. RinkCast 3D. Real-time 3D reconstruction of live sport in remote arenas: the large-scale opportunity.
