7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
On August 5, 2026, the Flash Sports & Media
Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release regarding the Term Sheet (as defined below), a copy of which is furnished
as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information contained in this Item 7.01, including
Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On August 3, 2026, the Company entered into a
term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with Bongo Holdings Pte Ltd, a Singapore private limited company (“Bongo”), regarding
the Company’s proposed acquisition of a 51% controlling interest in Bongo.
The Term Sheet contemplates that the Company would
acquire newly issued shares of Bongo and shares from certain existing Bongo stockholders so that the Company would own 51% of Bongo’s
fully diluted equity immediately following the closing. The proposed transaction is based on a pre-money equity valuation of Bongo of
$35.0 million and provides for aggregate closing consideration of approximately $25.7 million, consisting of approximately $15.4 million
of primary capital to be invested in Bongo and approximately $10.3 million of secondary consideration payable to existing Bongo stockholders.
The proposed consideration would consist of 60% cash and 40% equity securities of the Company, subject to adjustment based on Bongo’s
indebtedness and cash at closing.
In addition to the closing consideration, certain
members of Bongo’s management team who continue with the business following the closing may be eligible to receive an earnout of
up to an aggregate of $12.0 million over three years, subject to the achievement of specified annual revenue and EBITDA growth targets.
The earnout would be payable in cash, warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination thereof, as provided
in the definitive transaction agreements.
Following the closing and payment of the closing
consideration, the Company would have operational control over Bongo and the right to appoint three of the five members of Bongo’s
board of directors. Bongo’s existing management would continue to manage its day-to-day operations under the Company’s direction
and supervision.
The number of shares of the Company’s common
stock issuable in connection with the proposed transaction would be subject to a limitation of 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding
common stock unless the Company obtains stockholder approval in accordance with the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. Any
consideration that could not be paid in shares as a result of this limitation would be payable in cash.
Completion of the proposed transaction is subject
to, among other matters, the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, completion of due diligence, completion of an audit of
Bongo’s financial statements by a PCAOB-registered independent accounting firm, the Company obtaining sufficient financing, receipt
of any required Company stockholder approval, receipt of required regulatory and third-party approvals and satisfaction of other customary
closing conditions.
1
The Term Sheet provides that the parties will
use good-faith efforts to execute definitive agreements on or before August 15, 2026 and identifies September 15, 2026 as the parties’
target closing date. There can be no assurance, however, that definitive agreements will be entered into by that date or at all, that
the proposed transaction will be completed on the terms described in the Term Sheet or at all, or that the Company will obtain the financing
and approvals necessary to complete the proposed transaction.
Except for limited provisions relating to transaction-expense
reimbursement, exclusivity, the binding effect of those provisions and governing law, the Term Sheet is non-binding. Accordingly, the
proposed transaction terms remain subject to further negotiation and may change materially before the execution of definitive agreements.
The foregoing description of the Term Sheet is a summary and does not
purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Term Sheet, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this
Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 10.1
Term Sheet
Proposed
Acquisition by Flash Sports & Media Holdings, Inc. of a 51% Interest in Bongo Holdings Pte Ltd
Updated July 30, 2026.
This Term Sheet has been streamlined to serve
as a business-term summary only. The definitive agreements will govern all legal rights and obligations. Except for Section 10 (Breakup
Fee and Transaction Expenses), the latter as it relates to the “Transaction Expenses”, Sections 11 (Exclusivity) and 14 (Binding
Provisions), which are intended to be legally binding, this Executive Summary is non-binding and creates no obligation on either party
to proceed with the transaction.
1. Transaction Overview
FSM proposes to acquire a 51% controlling interest
in Bongo Holdings Pte Ltd at a pre-money valuation of $35.0 million. Total consideration is $25.7 million, consisting of $15.4 million
of newly issued primary capital and $10.3 million of secondary consideration payable to existing shareholders. Consideration will consist
of 60% cash and 40% FSM equity. The parties have agreed to an enterprise value of $35.8 million. The $35.0 million pre-money valuation
reflects such enterprise value less an agreed debt allowance of $800,000. Bongo's aggregate indebtedness as of closing shall not exceed
$800,000 (the "Debt Allowance"); to the extent indebtedness as of closing is less than the Debt Allowance, the pre-money valuation
shall be increased, and to the extent indebtedness exceeds the Debt Allowance, the pre-money valuation shall be reduced, in each case
dollar-for-dollar. Cash as of closing shall be added to the pre-money valuation on a dollar-for-dollar basis. For the avoidance of doubt,
no other cash-free, debt-free or working capital adjustment shall apply.
2. Transaction Structure
The acquisition will occur at the Singapore holding-company
level. FSM will acquire newly issued primary shares together with secondary shares from existing shareholders so that FSM owns exactly
51% of the fully diluted equity immediately following closing. Fully diluted equity shall be calculated to include all outstanding options,
warrants, convertible instruments, and all shares reserved for issuance under any employee equity plan, whether or not vested. The detailed
capitalization schedule shall be agreed and attached at signing of the definitive agreements.
3. Purchase Consideration
Both the primary and
secondary components shall be priced at the agreed pre-money valuation. The FSM share consideration shall be issued pursuant to the
definitive agreements, as restricted securities under Rule 144. FSM shall file a resale registration statement covering the FSM
share consideration within 30 days following closing and shall cause it to be declared effective within 90 days following closing.
If the registration statement has not been declared effective by the 90th day following closing, each Existing Stockholder may, by
written notice, require FSM to repurchase all or any portion of such holder's FSM share consideration at the greater of (x) the
value ascribed to such shares at closing and (y) the volume weighted average price over the ten trading days preceding the notice,
payable in cash within ten business days.
Resales shall be subject to a leak-out under which the Existing Stockholders may not sell,
in the aggregate on any trading day, more than 10% of the trailing twenty-day average daily trading volume of FSM common stock. The
leak-out shall automatically terminate if the resale registration statement is not filed and declared effective by the deadlines set
forth above or thereafter ceases to be effective.
Exchange Cap. The aggregate number of FSM shares issuable in connection with this
transaction, including the initial share consideration, any shares issued under the Pref X mechanism in Section 5, any equity
portion of the earnout in Section 6 and any breakup fee in Section 10, shall not exceed 19.99% of the FSM common stock outstanding
as of the date of this Executive Summary (the "Exchange Cap"), unless FSM first obtains stockholder approval in accordance
with Nasdaq Rule 5635. Any consideration otherwise payable in shares in excess of the Exchange Cap shall be settled in cash. FSM's
obligation to settle such excess amounts in cash shall be absolute and unconditional, shall apply at the same value and on the same
schedule as the share consideration it replaces, and in no event shall the Exchange Cap reduce the aggregate consideration payable
to Bongo or the Existing Stockholders. At the request of Bongo, FSM shall seek stockholder approval under Nasdaq Rule 5635 at its
next annual or special meeting of stockholders. No Existing Stockholder shall receive FSM shares representing 19.99% or more of
FSM's outstanding common stock on an individual basis.
4. Capital Structure
As a condition to signing, holders of the existing
preferred share classes shall waive any preferential economic rights, including liquidation preferences and anti-dilution protections,
so that all issued shares participate on an economically equivalent basis unless otherwise agreed. Such holders shall execute support
and waiver agreements concurrently with execution of the definitive agreements. Treatment of employee equity awards shall be confirmed
at signing and reflected in the fully diluted capitalization schedule.
5. Security for Stock Consideration
The stock consideration shall be secured through a
newly created class of preferred shares (the "Pref X Shares") pledged for the benefit of Bongo and the Existing Stockholders
until the agreed value of the FSM equity consideration has been fully realized or otherwise satisfied. The definitive agreements shall
specify the pledge, release mechanics, valuation methodology, liquidity thresholds and enforcement provisions, and shall in all cases
provide for: (i) a floor price below which no further shares become issuable, set at 75% of the volume weighted average price of FSM common
stock over the twenty trading days preceding signing; (ii) a hard cap of 1,850,000 FSM shares issuable in the aggregate under the Pref
X mechanism; and (iii) the obligation of FSM to satisfy any shortfall in cash in lieu of issuing additional shares. In no event shall
the Pref X mechanism result in the issuance of shares in excess of the Exchange Cap or the 1,850,000 share cap, whichever is lower. To
the extent the floor price, the 1,850,000 share cap or the Exchange Cap limits the issuance of shares under the Pref X mechanism, FSM
shall satisfy any resulting shortfall in cash.
2
6. Earnout
In
addition to the purchase price, the Management Stockholders (as defined in subsection (g) below) shall be eligible to receive an
earnout, structured as performance units as a part of a management retention program held at FSM, of up to $12.0 million, payable up
to $4.0 million per measurement year over three years, in each case payable in cash and/or warrants to purchase FSM common stock as
set forth in subsection (e) below. The earnout is separate from, and in addition to, the consideration of $25.7 million payable at
closing (aggregate transaction value, assuming the full earnout is achieved, of $37.7 million), does not form part of the purchase
price, and shall be addressed in a separate section of the definitive agreements.
(a) Targets.
The earnout payment for each measurement year shall be earned upon achievement of both (i) 20% year-over-year revenue growth and (ii)
20% year-over-year EBITDA growth for that year, measured against the prior measurement year (or, for Year 1, the agreed baseline).
(b) Variance
threshold. Each target shall be deemed achieved if actual results equal at least 95% of the applicable target level.
(c) Commencement.
The three-year earnout period begins on the first day of the first full fiscal quarter following closing.
(d) Baseline
and illustrative targets. Based on an agreed baseline of $9.6 million revenue (actual 2025 revenue) and $1.2 million EBITDA and the
20% growth targets:
Period
Revenue
EBITDA
Baseline
$ 9.6 M
$ 1.2 M
Year 1
$ 11.52 M
$ 1.44 M
Year 2
$ 13.82 M
$ 1.73 M
Year 3
$ 16.59 M
$ 2.07 M
(e) Form
of payment; Earnout Warrants. The earnout payment for each measurement year in which the earnout is earned shall be settled as
follows: (i) if the consolidated EBITDA of FSM and its subsidiaries (including Bongo) for such measurement year equals or exceeds
$15.0 million, 50% in cash and 50% in Earnout Warrants; and (ii) if such consolidated EBITDA is less than $15.0 million for such
measurement year, 100% in Earnout Warrants. “Earnout Warrants” means warrants to purchase shares of FSM common stock,
issued fully vested, with a nominal exercise price of $0.01 per share, exercisable for five years from issuance (including on a
cashless basis), with the number of underlying shares in respect of each measurement year fixed at signing and not subject to
adjustment for changes in the trading price of FSM common stock. The Earnout Warrants shall be issued in the name of Bongo’s
CEO, Ahad Bhai (“Ahad”). Ahad and Bongo’s board of directors shall, together, determine the allocation and
redistribution of the Earnout Warrants (and any shares issued upon exercise thereof) among himself and the other members of
Bongo’s management team, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and the transfer provisions to be set out in
the definitive agreements.
(f) Variance
threshold. If actual results for a measurement year equal at least 95% but less than 100% of both targets, the earnout payment for
that year shall be paid on a proportionately scaled basis; at or above 100% of both targets, the full payment is earned.
(g) Management
Stockholders; allocation. “Management Stockholders” means Ahad, and any members of Bongo’s active management team
who will continue to be engaged in the management of the business following closing, as identified in a schedule to be agreed and attached
at signing, with the allocation of earnout payments among the Management Stockholders to be determined by Ahad in his sole discretion.
The earnout is intended solely to incentivize the persons responsible for the post-closing growth and scalability of the business; no
non-operating or passive Existing Stockholder shall have any right to, or interest in, any earnout payment, notwithstanding that the Existing
Stockholders will collectively retain a 49% interest in Bongo following closing. If a Management Stockholder ceases to be engaged in the
management of the business during the earnout period, such holder’s unpaid allocation shall be reallocated among the remaining Management
Stockholders as determined by Ahad in his sole discretion, and shall not revert to FSM or reduce the aggregate earnout.
3
7. Governance
Effective immediately upon closing, and subject to
and conditioned upon the prior or concurrent payment in full of the closing consideration payable to Bongo and the Existing Stockholders,
FSM shall have full operational control over Bongo and its subsidiaries, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. At closing,
Bongo and the Existing Stockholders shall execute and deliver a management services agreement, voting and support agreement, board and
shareholder resolutions, delegations of authority, bank mandates and such other instruments as are reasonably necessary to implement such
operational control. From and after such transfer of control, FSM shall have sole authority to direct and supervise the day-to-day business
and operations of Bongo, including approval of operating budgets and business plans, cash management, material expenditures and contracts,
financing activities, hiring and termination of senior management, and other material operational decisions. Existing management shall
continue to manage the day-to-day operations of the business under FSM's direction and supervision. For the avoidance of doubt, no operational
or governance control of Bongo shall transfer to FSM, and no instrument implementing such transfer shall become effective or be released,
unless and until the closing consideration payable to Bongo and the Existing Stockholders has been indefeasibly paid and received in full.
Effective upon closing and payment in full of the
closing consideration, the board of directors of Bongo shall consist of five directors: (i) three directors appointed by FSM; and
(ii) two directors appointed by the Existing Stockholders. Each of FSM and the Existing Stockholders may remove and replace its own
appointees at any time. Following closing, FSM's operational control shall continue subject to board oversight and customary
reserved matters. The reserved matters list shall be agreed and attached at signing, shall be limited to customary protective rights
for each party, and shall not prevent, delay or materially impair FSM's authority to direct the ordinary-course business and
operations of Bongo.
8. Shareholder Approval and Closing Conditions
Closing shall remain subject to the appropriate consents,
execution of definitive transaction documents, completion of confirmatory diligence, completion of the Audit (as defined below) and satisfaction
of customary closing conditions. "Audit" means an audit of Bongo's financial statements conducted by a PCAOB-registered independent
accounting firm, prepared in accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-X Rule 3-05 and sufficient to permit FSM to file the required
financial statements and pro forma information on Form 8-K/A within 71 days following closing. Closing shall further be conditioned on
receipt of FSM stockholder approval to the extent required under Nasdaq Rule 5635, and on the additional conditions set forth in Section
12.
9. Timeline
The parties shall use good faith efforts to execute
definitive agreements on or before August 15, 2026. Closing is targeted for September 15, 2026, subject to completion of the Audit and
satisfaction of closing conditions. The purchase price shall remain based upon the agreed valuation unless the audited financial results
deviate beyond the agreed materiality threshold. The materiality threshold and the corresponding price adjustment mechanism shall be quantified
and agreed at signing. If closing has not occurred on or before December 15, 2026 (the "Outside Date"), either party may terminate
the transaction on written notice without further liability, other than the expense reimbursement and, where applicable, the breakup fee
set forth in Section 10. FSM may not terminate at or after the Outside Date if closing has not occurred as a result of FSM's failure to
obtain financing, board or stockholder approval, or any other matter within FSM's control, unless FSM has paid the breakup fee.
10. Breakup Fee and Transaction Expenses
If, as of September 15, 2026 (the "Breakup Fee
Eligibility Date"), FSM is unable to consummate the transaction and satisfy the purchase price in full, Bongo may trigger a $500,000
breakup fee payable in cash, provided that if FSM's board of directors does not approve payment of the breakup fee in cash or FSM does
not then have cash available, the breakup fee shall be payable in freely transferable FSM shares of equivalent value. This right may be
exercised only if Bongo has completed the Audit by the Breakup Fee Eligibility Date and the Audit results remain within the agreed financial
parameters. If the Audit has not been completed by such date, the Breakup Fee Eligibility Date shall automatically extend until the business
day immediately following completion of the Audit, and in no event beyond the Outside Date.
4
No breakup fee shall be payable if the
transaction fails to close as a result of (i) Bongo's inability to complete the Audit within the agreed financial parameters, to be
further defined in the definitive agreements, or (ii) a Material Breach by Bongo. “Material Breach” means fraud,
intentional misrepresentation or a willful and material breach by Bongo of its obligations, as further defined in the definitive
agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, payment of the breakup fee shall not be conditioned on, or excused by, FSM’s ability
to obtain financing or any FSM board or stockholder approval.
FSM shall reimburse Bongo $85,000 of transaction expenses,
consisting of (i) $30,000 payable upon signing of this Term Sheet and (ii) the remaining $55,000 payable on September 15, 2026, provided
the Audit has been completed by such date. If the Audit has not been completed, the remaining balance shall become payable on the first
business day following completion of the Audit. The expense reimbursement shall be payable whether or not the transaction closes, except
where the transaction is terminated as a result of a breach by Bongo, and shall not exceed $85,000 in the aggregate.
11. Exclusivity
From the date of this Executive Summary until the earlier
of (i) 90 days and (ii) termination of discussions by written notice, Bongo and the Existing Stockholders shall not solicit, initiate,
encourage or engage in discussions with any third party regarding any sale of equity, sale of assets, merger, recapitalization or other
change of control transaction, and shall promptly notify FSM of any such approach. This Section is binding.
12. Indemnification and Escrow
The definitive agreements shall include customary representations,
warranties, covenants and indemnities. An amount equal to 5% of the total consideration shall be held in escrow for the full period of
twelve months following closing, with no interim reduction or step-down, to satisfy indemnification claims. Fundamental representations,
including title to shares, capitalization, authority and taxes, shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations. A special indemnity
shall apply to chain of title in Bongo's content and licensing rights. The parties shall evaluate representation and warranty insurance
as an alternative to, or in reduction of, the escrow.
13. Additional Closing Conditions
Closing shall be further conditioned on: (i) delivery
of reasonably satisfactory evidence of chain of title to all material content, broadcast and licensing rights held by Bongo, together
with any required consents to change of control under those agreements; (ii) execution of employment, retention and non-competition agreements
by the key founders and management; (iii) confirmation that no director, officer or affiliate of FSM or of IPG holds any direct or indirect
economic interest in Bongo, or, if any such interest exists, satisfaction of the disclosure and approval requirements applicable to related
party transactions; (iv) confirmation or restatement on arm's-length terms of any existing licensing or sublicensing arrangement between
Bongo and FSM or its affiliates; and (v) all regulatory, tax and stamp duty clearances required in Singapore in connection with the transfer
of shares.
14. Binding Provisions
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein this Term Sheet, Section 10 (Breakup Fee and Transaction Expenses), the latter as it relates to the
“Transaction Expenses”, Sections 11 (Exclusivity) and 14 (Binding Provisions), are all intended to be legally binding.
Every other provision herein this Term Sheet shall remain non-binding and creates no obligation on either party to proceed with the
transaction.
5
15. Governing Law
This Term Sheet shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of law principles. This Section is binding.

Exhibit 99.1
Flash
(Nasdaq: FLZH) Signs Term Sheet for 51% of Bongo; Deal gives access to 300M Viewers, ~$10M Revenue, EBITDA Accretive
New York, NY, August 5th, 2026 — Flash
Sports & Media Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: FLZH) (“Flash Sports & Media,” “FSM” or the “Company”),
a vertically integrated sports, media and fan engagement platform, today announced that it has entered into a non-binding term sheet to
acquire a 51% controlling interest in Bongo Holdings Pte Ltd (“Bongo”), one of South Asia’s leading digital media, streaming
and content distribution platforms. This transaction would give FSM a controlling position and based on financial information provided
by Bongo management, the Company expects Bongo to contribute positive EBITDA following closing, before giving effect to transaction expenses,
purchase-accounting adjustments and financing costs.
Bongo has built one of South Asia’s largest
digital media ecosystems, combining a proprietary end-to-end streaming platform with a distribution network reaching more than 300 million
viewers and owned digital brands with over 73 million social media followers. Bongo distributes content through platforms including YouTube,
Facebook and TikTok and has advised the Company that it is delivering premium sports and entertainment content from globally recognized
brands including, Premium Football Leagues & Tournaments, MasterChef, Shark Tank, Eurovision and Family Feud, in addition to working
with major media companies such as Sony and among many others.
The proposed acquisition positions Flash Sports
& Media to own and operate a fully integrated sports and media ecosystem spanning premium sports rights, original content, live event
production, proprietary streaming technology, direct-to-consumer distribution, advertising inventory and fan engagement. Beyond adding
an established, revenue-generating digital platform, the transaction is expected to significantly accelerate Flash’s global expansion
strategy by providing immediate technology infrastructure, distribution scale and access to high-growth Asian markets.
Except for provisions relating to exclusivity, transaction-expense
reimbursement, governing law and the binding effect of those provisions, the Term Sheet is non-binding.
Strategic Rationale: Building a Vertically Integrated Global Sports
& Media Platform
Flash Sports & Media has assembled a portfolio of premium sports
rights, live event properties, production capabilities and fan engagement assets. The proposed Bongo acquisition adds the final layer
of the value chain by combining proprietary streaming technology, large-scale digital distribution and an established audience into a
single integrated platform capable of delivering and monetizing content directly with consumers worldwide.
The Company believes acquiring a controlling interest in Bongo creates
several significant strategic advantages:
Technology Infrastructure — Bongo’s proprietary
end-to-end streaming platform, purpose-built for mobile-first users and optimized for lower-bandwidth environments across emerging markets,
will provide the technology backbone for Flash’s global direct-to-consumer streaming strategy.
Distribution Network — Immediate access to a digital creator
ecosystem reaching more than 300 million viewers across South Asia and international diaspora markets provides Flash with a powerful distribution
network for content sourcing, original programming and future premium content.
Audience & Engagement — More than 73 million followers
across Bongo’s owned digital brands create an established audience for Flash’s sports properties while significantly expanding
opportunities for fan acquisition, engagement and cross-promotion.
Premium Content Relationships — Commercial relationships
with leading global content owners and entertainment brands, including Premium Football Leagues & Tournaments, MasterChef, Shark Tank,
Eurovision and Family Feud, provide meaningful opportunities to accelerate Flash’s content strategy and broaden its premium media
offering.
Sports & Cricket Ecosystem — Bongo’s deep experience
across Asian sports markets and established relationships throughout the regional cricket ecosystem are expected to strengthen Flash’s
ability to expand sports rights, develop premium programming and deepen fan engagement throughout one of the world’s fastest-growing
sports markets.
Streaming & Media Expansion — Bongo’s proprietary
streaming technology is expected to power Flash’s future streaming services, reducing development timelines while providing a scalable
infrastructure capable of supporting premium live sports, entertainment and original programming at a substantially lower operating cost.
Advertising & Monetization — The combination significantly
expands advertising inventory, subscription opportunities, audience analytics and data-driven monetization capabilities, strengthening
Flash’s recurring revenue model beyond event-driven revenues.
Content Strategy & Market Intelligence — Bongo’s
extensive experience in content acquisition, regional programming, audience behavior and digital media strategy provides Flash with valuable
expertise to support future content investments and expansion throughout Asia.
If completed, the acquisition is expected to significantly strengthen
Flash Sports & Media’s position as a vertically integrated global sports, media and technology company by combining premium
sports rights, proprietary streaming technology, large-scale digital distribution network, audience engagement and recurring media revenues
into a single scalable platform. “Bongo gives us the piece of the value chain we do not own today. We control live properties, we
control production, and we control activation — what we have not controlled is the pipe to the consumer. A 51% position in a streaming
platform already generating close to $10 million of revenue changes that. It lets us take our content directly to the audience that cares
most about it, keep the subscriber relationship, and build recurring revenue alongside our event-driven business. The proposed structure
includes a 60% cash and 40% equity consideration mix, limits share issuances absent stockholder approval and provides for up to an additional
$12 million management earnout tied to future revenue and EBITDA growth.”
— Bradley Nattrass, CEO, Flash Sports & Media Holdings, Inc.
“For more than a decade, Bongo has grown into one of South Asia’s
leading digital media ecosystems by combining proprietary streaming technology, premium global content partnerships and one of the region’s
largest digital audiences. Joining forces with Flash Sports & Media represents an exciting new chapter that brings together technology,
premium sports content, global distribution and world-class fan engagement. Together, we believe we can build one of the most compelling
sports and digital media platforms serving emerging markets and audiences worldwide.”
— Ahad Bhai, Founder, Bongo Holdings Pte Ltd
