Nothing beats sport for engagement – that’s why it’s a $1.3t industry.
But Gens Z and younger are half as likely to watch sport on TV than older age groups. With traditional sport delivering the wrong content to the wrong channels for these younger fans, it’s losing them to more interactive media.
Dont take our word for it…

Aphetor is a new kind of sport/entertainment property, built for a world of immersive media and extended reality this audience embraces:
They are social media stars with millions of followers
The creators take part, engaging their followers along the way
We want fans invovled in the action and even to be able to compete alongside the creators
Despite the pandemic, we staged two events: Aphetor Altitude in Wales in 2020 and Aphetor Rising on the Greek island of Rhodes in 2021
At Aphetor Rising we bought together 30 social media creators with a combined reach of 65 million followers
Over 2000 pieces of content were posted across social from Aphetor Rising
The event in Rhodes delivered 112m views (more online views than the BBC's Tokyo Olympic coverage)
This event demonstrated Aphetors value to creators and global partners like Nature Valley
We've already attracted the world-class investors behind Revolut, Football Manager and Just Eat
Ultimately, Aphetor sits at the intersection of the sports industry, the Creator Economy and the Metaverse. Our ambition is nothing less than to create the future of sport/entertainment. This is the future that we would love you to join. The next round of investment will put us firmly on that path
We're looking to grow to 4 events in our next cycle and deliver content between events to keep our audience engaged
We are looking to build a global community of highly engaged fans who are regularly engaging with the Aphetor plaform and which we will seek to monetise
We will invest in our content and tech stack to drive deeper engagement. Expect more live content, innovative voting mechanisms, direct access to the Creators, AR Filter games and exciting XR challenges and experiences.
