Global sports media firm expands into new 40,000 sq ft media centre

DAZN Group, the global sports media company, has announced it will occupy a brand new office at the White Rose Office Park in Leeds from 28 January.

DAZN Group’s editorial, product and design teams based in Leeds will be among the first to move into the 40,000 sq ft space, which has the capacity to accommodate 350 staff.

The media centre will house employees from across the company’s consumer brands, including Goal, one of the largest sport websites in the world, and DAZN, the world’s first sports on-demand streaming service.

DAZN is currently available in seven countries including the U.S., Japan, Germany and Italy, and is launching in Spain and Brazil in early 2019.

Neil Colligan, COO of DAZN Group, said: “The new office in Leeds is an important milestone in DAZN Group’s journey to become the world’s biggest digital sport media business, with the best sports streaming product in the market.

“Our new home at the White Rose Office Park will provide us with the space and facilities to continue to expand our global footprint, whilst investing in Leeds as one of the UK’s most influential media hubs.”

Headquartered in London, DAZN Group has almost 3,000 employees in over 30 countries.
