Company profile

Company overview. Genius Sports Technologies Ltd. (also styled Genius Sports Technologies Limited) is a UK private limited company incorporated on 24 May 2016, with its registered office at 27 Soho Square, London (Companies House no. 10197219). It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genius Sports Ltd., part of the Genius Sports group headed by NYSE-listed Genius Sports Limited (ticker: GENI), a Guernsey-incorporated company headquartered in London. The group reports roughly 2,000–2,700 employees, FY2025 revenue of about $669.5M, and a market cap in the ~$1.7–2.0B range (Genius Sports 20-F; GlobalData; StockAnalysis).

Products / operations. The parent group is a sports data, sports-betting, and sports-media technology company. Through official data and streaming rights deals with leagues such as the NFL, EPL, NBA, MLB, and NASCAR, it collects and distributes live sports data and supplies betting technology (e.g., LiveData, LiveTrading, Genius Trading Services, BetVision, In-Play MultiBet), outsourced bookmaking, trading/risk management, and fan-engagement and marketing tools for sportsbooks and media partners. Genius Sports Technologies itself is described in registry data as providing data-processing, hosting, and betting-related services for the group.

Patent-litigation posture. This is an operating company (and its corporate group) appearing purely as a defendant: 1 tracked case, 0 plaintiff-side appearances. In SportsCastr Inc. v. Genius Sports Ltd. et al. (No. 2:23-cv-00471-JRG), filed 5 Oct 2023 in the Eastern District of Texas (Marshall Division) before Judge Rodney Gilstrap, Genius Sports Technologies is named alongside roughly a dozen Genius and Maven affiliates. The plaintiff, SportsCastr Inc. (d/b/a PANDA Interactive), a sports-streaming/betting-technology firm, asserts four patents (U.S. 10,805,687; 11,039,218; 10,425,697; 11,871,088) covering synchronized live video and event/betting data delivery, targeting Genius' streaming products such as BetVision.

Notable context. In 2025 the plaintiff added federal and Texas antitrust claims against the Genius group and co-defendant Sportradar. Genius responded with inter partes review petitions at the PTAB challenging several asserted patents, with at least one IPR decision in 2026 finding challenged claims unpatentable (Bloomberg Law). Genius' 20-F discloses the suit as ongoing, with the patent trial then scheduled for April 2026.
