Our take
Livescore Group is a union of sports streaming, digital media, and online betting companies that includes Livescore (founded in 1997), Livescore Bet, and Virgin Bet. With streaming services predicted to spend $6 billion on sports rights in 2023 alone, the Livescore Group is located in the heart of a lucrative industry, and that’s before the gambling side of their group is even considered.
Livescore Group makes considerable revenue from selling its advertising space, and with streaming becoming an increasingly popular way to engage with sports, it’s unsurprising that in 2022 the company received large sums of venture capital.
Livescore Group is using its 2022 funds to accelerate growth in Central and Eastern Europe, further bolstering its 35 million worldwide active monthly users.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at LiveScore Group
- The I.D.E.A (Inclusion, Diversity, Equality, Awareness) Forum: LiveScore Group is committed to diversity and inclusion, which we recognise as critical to our business and fundamental to everything we do. The I.D.E.A Forum programme includes systemic and holistic initiatives at both strategic and operational levels across all our entities. Our programme is supported by policies and practices providing an integrated approach to inclusion, opportunity, equality and diversity at LiveScore Group.
- LiveScore Group recognises that actions speak louder than words. Though sports and gaming typically lack a representative workforce, we are focussed on creating a more balanced employee base that reflects the diversity of our audiences as well as developing products and features that have wider appeal. We are committed to recruiting and fostering the development of a people from varied backgrounds to bring diversity of experience and promote thought-diversity within our teams. We passionately believe that you have the right to ‘live your truth’ each day, and we are working on reducing barriers to entry (and upward mobility) – particularly for those from underrepresented communities.
- One of the aims of the I.D.E.A Forum is to eliminate practices of unconscious bias and discrimination from our ways of working as well as creating opportunities for diverse talent to thrive. We are not yet perfect, but our whole group – executives and employees alike – are dedicated to becoming better, and we invite you to join in on our collective journey to inclusiveness as we believe and invest in a more equitable society for all.
