Company mission
To connect people around the moments that they love, making live events a shared experience – whether or not you’re there in person.
Our take
While it’s now well-recorded that the pandemic has ushered in a new era of remote working, the significant shift towards virtual, live entertainment has gone much less noticed. The sports and music industries seriously upped their game to start engaging fans at home to recreate that ‘live’ experience.
CrowdSurf is at the forefront of of this change. The company is developing an entertainment streaming platform that allows viewers and artists to see, hear and interact with an unlimited virtual crowd.
Launching in Q3 of 2022, the company’s leadership are hoping that their product will fundamentally change live streamed sports and entertainment through their proprietary technologies and deep understanding of the culture in these sectors.
