About Justin Driscoll

Justin Driscoll focuses on sports teams as under-monetized businesses, pointing out that they often lack the fan data and direct customer relationships that companies like Netflix or Spotify have, and he sees better data infrastructure as the key to unlocking more value across teams, sponsorships, and fan experience. He also puts a lot of weight on helping founders beyond just writing a check, believes that hands-on support is what actually lowers investment risk, and brings a perspective shaped by his own start in venture through a baseball startup capital raise rather than a traditional finance background.
