Bally’s said the acquisition will provide opportunities to “attract a younger demographic and augment” its customer base.

Telescope was founded on the premise that viewers will increasingly seek to engage directly with live video in real time,” stated Jason George, Telescope’s chairman. “Over the past 19 years, we’ve witnessed a material shift from TV to digital video across [over-the-top] and social platforms. We believe the next iteration is true gamification with immersive experiences offered anywhere that fans want to engage with their favorite live events.”
