PA Media Group today announces the appointment of Josh Sparke from 1 March 2025, as Managing Director of Podium, its sports and betting data business.
Podium is a trusted market leader in providing sports data, content, and technology. Podium, until recently known as PA Betting Services, was rebranded to reflect its growth and evolution in the racing and betting sector. The business delivers global coverage through a unified distribution network, serving sportsbooks, rightsholders, affiliates, media, and technology platforms.
Gareth Bramall, Chief Strategy Officer at PA Media Group, commented: “Following a rigorous selection process with exceptional candidates, Josh stood out. He brings extensive industry experience, passion for sport and has a clear vision of growth for Podiumâ€.
Sparke has a wealth of knowledge of the industry having worked with leading brands such as Betmakers and Livescore. His strong relationships with sports and racing rightsholders as well as an entrepreneurial mindset will enhance Podium’s position in the market. Sparke takes over from Eugene Delaney, who will remain as an advisor to the business.
Sparke said ‘PA Media Group has a proud and reputable history and has been at the heart of racing for over 40 years. I’m fortunate to be inheriting a strong team from Eugene and I’m joining Podium at an exciting time, following its acquisition of iRace and significant investments in product and technology. We have a strong foundation for innovation, partnerships, and sustainable growth in the UK and internationally. I look forward to making Podium a global leader in racing and sports betting contentâ€
