Jatin Ahluwalia is a first-generation sports entrepreneur. In an era where most entrepreneurs are emerging in fintech, IT, retailers and online retail, a sports-based venture by Jatin Ahluwalia has carved a beautiful niche for itself.  After leaving Accenture, Jatin started his entrepreneurial journey with the acquisition of Global Mobile Rights for IPL in 2010, which his first start-up – vRock Mobile, monetised till 2014. He launched Seven3Rockers Technologies – an India-based start-up with a focus on “ Sports Monetisation” across digital platforms and, subsequently- Sports Networks, a homegrown pure-play sports venture led by a team of young sports enthusiasts committed to ushering in best practices for the development of sports in India. What began as a journey with a vision to bring India’s leading cricket League (IPL) – Indian Premier League experience on mobile phones that a billion Indians use extensively soon graduated to broadcast the Indian Premier League (IPL) for the Indian subcontinental region.  Their game grew by partnering with FIFA to broadcast the FIFA 2014 World Cup across six Asian countries. It was for the first time that FIFA was broadcast across these countries. Jatin continues expanding its sports footprints and brought the German football league, ‘Bundesliga”, to create India’s digital experience, yet another first by him.

The icing on the cake was an association with cricketing legend Mr Sachin Tendulkar to launch his digital assets and other digital fan engagement programs. Abhishek Saklani and Sapnaa Ahluwalia have played a key role along with Jatin to grow the sports business beyond boundaries. Today, their footprints cover the West with Sports Networks UK and a local team in   Barcelona to grow Europe. The London-based office has tied up with the cricket board in Catalonia region (FCC) in Spain to develop and run Barcelona’s official T20 cricket league for the next 25 years.   Among a few other collaborations, MICSports, the owner of MICFOOTBALL, has also tied up Sports Networks to enable Indian school students and clubs to take part in the world’s most popular and prestigious youth football tournament – MICFOOTBALL. Sports NTW is all set with this tie-up to ramp up grassroots-level sports and has planned a school partnership program to grow sports in India from the grassroots level.

Jatin is the recipient of the prestigious British Chevening Scholarship and the Leeds University Alumni India chapter chair.
