From innovative digital menus to engaging team information and social media, FanConnect transforms existing televisions into a fan engagement platform. "FanConnect is a natural extension of our 360-degree fan experience at Dr Pepper Ballpark," President and General Manager Andy Milovich said.

FanConnect also provides a new source of sponsorship revenue for the RoughRiders. "We have seen great adoption from our sponsors and generated an immediate ROI before the season started; Our sponsors can now provide targeted messaging to nearly 500,000 fans annually using FanConnect," said Milovich.

Larry Witherspoon, FanConnect's CEO noted, "We announced this partnership back in the fall of 2017 and are thrilled to see the results for the RoughRiders. We deployed the FanConnect solution using the existing infrastructure - giving the RoughRiders a quick to implement, low cost solution that no one else could deliver."
