OneTeam was recapitalized with a $1.9Bn valuation. Capital was raised in podcasting, fantasy sports, and fitness this week. And don’t miss the announcement on the new Fan Controlled Hoops league coming to Atlanta in early 2023.
I’ll be out of the office next week, so look for a jumbo sized double edition when I return on October 6th.
