Northbrook, IL – February 27, 2008 – STATS LLC, the world’s leading sports information provider, today announced the appointment of Roy Clements as Managing Director of STATS Europe.
STATS announced the formation of STATS Europe last August in an effort to enhance the company’s global footprint. The joint venture was formed in partnership with leading European sports industry experts Warner Leach and JHB Publications.
“Roy has an exceptional track record building profitable businesses in various Asian and European markets,” said STATS CEO, Gary Walrath. “Our partners and I are delighted that Roy has agreed to lead the talented STATS Europe team’s collaboration with leagues and consumer platforms to enhance the experience of sports fans across Europe.”
