JWS will license GameOn’s proprietary game engine to power a prediction bracket for the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GameOn Entertainment Technologies Inc. (CSE: GET) (OTCQB: GMETF), a leading NFT solutions and game technology provider to media, sports and entertainment companies, is pleased to announce today that it will work with Just Women’s Sports (“JWS”) to power a prediction bracket for their 2022 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament.
Founded in 2020 by Haley Rosen, JWS is the leading multimedia platform exclusively dedicated to women’s sports, showcasing “100% women’s sports, 100% of the time.”
Just Women’s Sports will leverage GameOn’s proprietary game engine to power a prediction bracket for the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament beginning with the first round played on March 16-17. The Division I NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament culminates with the Championship Game on April 3.
Working with Just Women’s Sports furthers GameOn’s goal to support women’s sports following the Company’s partnership with the Kevin Garnett-backed Gaming Society, which was announced in November. In just seven months since publicly-listing on the CSE, GameOn’s B2B customer-base has expanded to include ten projects across basketball, football, soccer, tennis and cricket. All customers are driven by license (upfront fees and recurring revenue) and revenue share agreements, and will go live in the next several months.
“This year’s NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament will be unlike any in the past, and we’re excited to work with Just Women’s Sports to further elevate women’s sports through innovative game technologies,” said Matt Bailey, GameOn CEO. “Our solution allows brands to go the extra mile by giving fans an opportunity to further engage in their favorite sports, TV shows, and live events, and we look forward to having Just Women’s Sports fully leverage our capabilities.”
