San Francisco Business Times
Partner Mary K. Braza was quoted in a San Francisco Business Times article, “Esports Joins the Big Leagues,” about how and why professional sports teams like the Golden State Warriors are investing in esports.
“A lot of it depends on the type of owner you have in the traditional sports,” said Braza, who co-chairs Foley’s sports industry team. “The Warriors owners are more interested in new technologies, they’re younger than a lot of owners and they’re more connected to the tech community.”
The article also noted the findings of Foley and The Esports Observer’s new esports survey including concerns about match fixing, net neutrality and illegal gambling.
