As a big data expert and a lifelong fan of competitive sports, FanAI is the culmination of two of Johannes Waldstein's passions. A serial entrepreneur, he has founded four other startups that tackled marketplace issues surrounding data, mobile payments, and sports tech. As a Product Manager at dunnhumby, the world’s largest loyalty data sciences company, Johannes helped build data platforms that provided 360° customer insights for some of the world’s largest global agencies and brands, including retail chains such as Best Buy, Home Depot, Tesco, and Macy’s.

Brands really want to understand the gaming and e-sports for attribution and have migrated to the traditional sports where the BIG money is. Join Johannes as he discusses "Follow the Money: The Future of Multichannel Measurement" on the sub-series, Marketing Horizons.
