Gurugram-based Sportsdunia announced the successful close of its pre-seed funding round, securing backing from a consortium of angel investors. Though the exact size of the investment remains undisclosed, this infusion of capital marks a major milestone for the multi-sports analytics platform as it accelerates development of its proprietary AI-driven insights engine.
Founded barely two years ago, Sportsdunia is a multi-sport analytics platform. It leverages a proprietary AI/ML engine to transform fragmented live-data streams into real-time performance forecasts across cricket, football, basketball, esports, and more. Catering to fantasy-sports players, broadcast analysts, and fans alike, the platform democratizes access to advanced predictive metrics. The fresh funding will fuel product enhancements, strategic hires, and go-to-market initiatives, positioning Sportsdunia to redefine how audiences consume and engage with live sporting action. “As fan expectations evolve and teams demand deeper, real-time insights, the sports-analytics landscape is undergoing a fundamental shift. With this support, we’re one step closer to bringing next-level analytics to every sports fan,” said Abhinav Agarwal, Co-Founder of Sportsdunia.
The sports-tech sector continues to attract robust investment as data-driven insights become integral to fan engagement, performance optimization, and commercial partnerships. Additionally, the global fantasy-sports market is on a steep growth trajectory, with revenues expected to rise from roughly USD 27.8 billion in 2025 to over USD 56.4 billion by 2030. Iconic platforms like Fantasy Premier League now engage more than 11.4 million users worldwide.
As participation swells, existing publishers and generic tools fall short of delivering the real-time, predictive insights that both casual players and pro-teams crave. This gap has spurred a wave of AI-powered analytics startups, such as Sportsdunia, which leverage advanced machine-learning to convert live data feeds into actionable performance forecasts.
“Our mission is to stay ahead of the curve by harnessing AI and live data to empower every fan, fantasy player, and professional team with predictive metrics that drive smarter decisions and richer engagement,” said Harsimran Singh Gill, Product Head at Sportsdunia.
