Fantasy Sports Ventures To Rebrand And Launch As ‘Big Lead Sports’ by FSV

September 28, 2010 · 0 comments

Fantasy Sports Ventures has re-branded and re-launched as “Big Lead Sports by FSV” to deliver breaking news, in-depth analysis, and exclusive features from more than 1000 independent sports journalists.

While FSV was founded four years ago with a focus on fantasy sports, the new branding reflects the company’s move into all areas of sports coverage, while maintaining a leadership position in fantasy sports.

Chris Russo FSV CEO said “We are very excited about our new brand positioning and believe that we can better serve our users, advertisers, and partner sites as Big Lead Sports. When we launched Fantasy Sports Ventures in 2006, we never expected to become a top 5 sports property or reach 15 million users. Given the growth and evolution of our business, the re-branding will help us communicate our distinctive products and leadership position to the marketplace.”
