Sportradar appoints Jim Brown to strengthen US Integrity Services
Global sports technology company Sportradar has announced the appointment of Jim Brown as Head of Integrity Services & Harm Prevention in North America.
With his experience in sports wagering risk mitigation, risk management, strategy development, business process evaluation and design, Brown brings two decades of industry knowledge to the company.
Based in the US, Brown will report to the Managing Director of Integrity Services, Andreas Krannich.
Krannich commented: “Integrity is not a check-the-box exercise, but a complex strategic service that blends process, regulation and education and is driven by technology. Jim has a proven track record in bringing these elements to life with great success and notable impact and we’re thrilled to bring him aboard.”
Over the past eight years at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), Brown worked as the Managing Director of Enterprise Risk Management. He was influential during his tenure and led the organisation’s approach to sports wagering mitigation.
He aimed to ensure the well-being education of 550,000 student-athletes, the development of a comprehensive program featuring integrity-related monitoring of 12,500 games annually and reviewing measures, all the while enhancing the background checks of 19,000 game officials.
Brown commented on his new role, saying: “As new sports betting markets open up across the US, the need for robust and resilient integrity services has never been greater.
“Sportradar sets the standard in our industry and I’m excited to join the team to lead the development of existing and new offerings that will both protect the integrity of competitions, as well as safeguard the well-being of athletes.”
