Sportvision

overview

Burns served as general counsel for Chicago-based Sportvision for many years, helping the company grow into a valuable and powerful sports technology leader. Most recently, we represented Sportvision, which is best known for its Emmy award-winning Virtual Yellow 1st and Ten line, its MLB pitch and strike-zone tracking system and its NASCAR tracking and pointer system, in its October 2016 acquisition by SportsMEDIA Technology (SMT).

Throughout the lengthy deal negotiations, we kept the buyer and seller engaged – working tirelessly to find the best possible solutions and outcomes for both parties and to see the deal through to completion. Rebranded as SMT, Sportvision now reaches a host of new clients and sectors in the highly competitive global sports and broadcast services industry.
