Tune in to this episode to get our take on the (partially broken) stadium experience and listen to how we'd solve it!

v2.1.1 - Getting Tickets for Sports Tournaments
In our first episode of Season 2 and our Sports Tournaments Series, we're looking at the first step everyone needs to go through to attend a sports competition/game as a fan - buying tickets.
Having attended multiple Football/Soccer EUROs and World Cups in our lives, including the recently ended European Championship, we try to take apart the process of getting tickets, share some tips, review the existing ticketing portals, and, of course, solving the ticket problem by coming up with our digital solution!
