According to the company, the product is already in use by over 1,000 corporations such as NBC Universal, Motorola and 20 teams in the four major professional sports leagues, including the Miami HEAT and Chicago Bears.
As part of the financing agreement, Sean Marsh David Martirano, both co-founder and General Partner at Point Judith, will join the Spotlight board of directors.
Spotlight was founded by Joe Greiner (CEO), Tony Knopp (President) and Aric Haut (COO) – all three had executive sales positions at StubHub before kicking off Spotlight.
