MADRID, Aug. 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Globant (NYSE: GLOB) and LaLiga Tech have come together to collaborate with Microsoft on a series of initiatives with the goal of fostering the transformation of sports in various domains through the utilization of Artificial Intelligence.
After years of collaboration between Microsoft, Globant, and LaLiga to create digital products and solutions that help the reinvention of sport and entertainment, LaLiga Tech - after Globant's partnership with LaLiga - is extending this initiative beyond football to other sports such as basketball, rugby and tennis.
The new projects now underway are designed to improve the data available to coaches in order to help real-time decision-making, enhance the experience of fans around the world by automatically generating new, personalized content, and to deliver immersive new materials for broadcasters.

Agustin Huerta, SVP of Technology of Globant, claims that "For a decade, artificial intelligence and data have been an integral part of Globant's vision, been applied transversally to all areas of the company, from talent circuits to operational models, to deploy solutions to increase productivity and efficiency". And adds: "With this joint venture with LaLiga, we are working to extend our capabilities to LaLiga Tech with the support of a big partner such as Microsoft, and the first tests have proven to be disruptive and successful".
Gonzalo Zarza, Chief Data Officer at LaLiga Tech, adds: "LaLiga Tech brings together Globant's technological capabilities and LaLiga's sporting expertise to create a unique landscape that places sports reinvention at the core of its activity".
