NEW YORK, NY and BALTIMORE, MD – November 8, 2022 – SeatGeek, the high-growth technology platform transforming the live event experience for fans, teams and venues, announced a multi-year partnership deal with the NFL's Baltimore Ravens today.

"We are thrilled to have SeatGeek join the Ravens Flock. At the Ravens, we are deeply committed to delivering best-in-class experiences to Ravens fans and our guests at M&T Bank Stadium," Baltimore Ravens President, Sashi Brown stated.

SeatGeek's technology will power all Ravens home games, concerts and other events at M&T Stadium and the Under Armour Performance Center. Unify, SeatGeek's backend technology platform, will allow the Ravens and venue staff to manage their sales and inventory efficiently to deliver a personalized experience for fans, with SeatGeek's vertically integrated platform helping the team capture better economics.
"There is a movement happening across sports teams and leagues when it comes to modernizing their technology both on and off the field," said Danielle du Toit, President of SeatGeek's enterprise business. "From our very early interactions with Sashi and the Ravens, it was clear that they're focused on being at the forefront of this change and innovation. And the ones that will benefit the most from this shift are the fans."
