New subsidiary, led by an experienced UK-based founding team, will build a connected platform for the sports business, uniting talent representation, athlete branding and marketing
PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Game Your Game, Inc. (Nasdaq: GYGY) (“GYG” or the “Company”), an AI-powered sports performance technology company, today announced the formation of Altus Sports Group, Inc. (“ASG”), a new majority-owned subsidiary that will expand GYG’s platform beyond golf technology products and into the commercial infrastructure of sports, including talent representation, athlete branding and sports marketing.
ASG is being built to serve as a home for the industry’s leading talent agents and sports marketers, and it is designed to provide them the services, infrastructure and support to grow their practices and deliver more for the athletes and brands they represent. Drawing on the founding team’s relationships across the global sports industry, ASG intends to bring leading agents and practitioners onto the platform, combining their client relationships with shared capabilities in talent representation, branding, marketing, commercial partnerships and technology. GYG will own
The goal of this collaboration is to connect technology and the athlete economy by combining GYG’s AI-powered digital infrastructure and consumer products to enhance engagement with athletes and fans. Additionally, ASG’s representation and marketing capabilities are utilized to create commercial opportunities for athletes and brands. Together, these businesses aim to create a flywheel effect, where technology attracts athletes, athlete relationships generate audiences and content, audiences create commercial opportunities, and successful commercial and media properties generate new intellectual property and ventures.
“We are moving from simply measuring athletic performance to building an ecosystem around the athlete, combining technology, AI, data, media, marketing and intellectual property,” said Soumya Das, Chairman and CEO of GYG. “We believe this gives us the opportunity to participate in a much larger part of the sports-industry economy. We are pleased to have the opportunity to be doing this through ASG with a founding team whose relationships span the global sports industry.”
ASG will be led by a founding team with deep experience across sports representation, marketing and brand-building: Michele Rinchiuso, CEO; Mohammed Majid, CFOO; Ehsen Shah, CSO; and Patryk Strojny, Advisor. The team, based in the United Kingdom, brings connections and familiarity with athletes, agents, clubs, federations, brands and content rights holders across the global sports industry, and deep operating experience in talent representation, athlete branding and sports marketing.
“Athletes today are their own brands, independent media businesses and entrepreneurs — but the companies that serve them are still largely fragmented,” said Michele Rinchiuso, CEO of ASG. “ASG intends to provide leading agents and marketers in the industry an innovative platform: one that builds a bespoke service offering around them and gives them the resources and reach to grow their practices. Backed by GYG's technology and public-company resources, we believe we can offer athletes, brands and rights holders something genuinely new. We're excited to get to work.”
