Zuccarini’s hiring comes as GumGum Sports wraps up another successful 12-month period, which included doubling global customer count, doubling overall revenue, increasing international revenue by over 15%, hiring former ESPN exec Tori Stevens to grow the company’s Customer Success team, and uncovering more than $6B in earned media value generated for clients. The company now services over one-third of all teams across MLB, NFL, MLS, NBA, and NHL, and recently expanded into golf, rugby, squash and lacrosse sponsorship measurement.

In the last year, esports has also become an area of growth for the company, which last April launched its Esports Sponsorship Management Platform (SMP) to allow esports teams and organizations to configure sponsors seamlessly during gameplay without impacting a player’s stream, helping teams and organizations further monetize the industry. Continuing to expand GumGum Sports’ esports footprint will be a focus for Zuccarini.

“Dominic brings strong relationships and valuable experience in helping grow early stage companies,” added Kim. “His leadership will no doubt be a tremendous asset to us as we accelerate our go to market strategy and continue our expansion beyond the North America market.”
