Hang, a NYC-based provider of a direct-to-consumer sports platform, raised $9.2M Series A funding.
The round was led by The Operating Group, with participation from Clara Vista Investment Partners, Ratner Ventures, Brown Angel Group, and Anthony Baranello.
The company intends to use the funds to accelerate product development and audience growth, expanding its position in the sports media category.
Led by CEO Jon Klein and CTO Lorne Greene, Hang Media provides a fan-celebrity community, driving 800,000 views of each virtual watch party around major sports events including pro and college football, basketball, baseball, soccer, and cricket. Since its founding in September 2021, more than 22 million young sports fans have come face-to-face with their idols ‐ star athletes, performers, and influencers – while everyone watches the game on their own devices.
