As part of this partnership, Infosys will become the Global Technology Services Partner and Platinum Sponsor of the ATP World Tour, as well as the season-ending Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, for the next three years, according to a media release.
Infosys will leverage its expertise in cloud, mobility and analytics to manage, analyze and interpret large volumes of tennis data (both historical and current) and present insights and predictions through interactive platforms for ATP fans, players, partners and the media.
Under this partnership, Infosys will work on several key initiatives for the ATP World Tour. These will include creation of an exclusive Infosys ATP Scores and Stats Center to revolutionise engagement with tennis fans by providing unprecedented insights and predictions about every tournament, every match and every point.
The Scores and Stats Center will be powered by the Infosys Information Platform (IIP), an open-source data analytics platform for data visualization and data analysis.
That apart the partnership envisages an ATP Player Zone, a next-generation player engagement platform and mobile app, to elevate the experience for players and enable them to register for tournaments, review travel information, connect with other players, and stay up-to-date on all ATP World Tour news.
Vishal Sikka, Chief Executive Officer, Infosys, said: "As a fan personally of tennis, it is really exciting to think about how we can invent great new and engaging experiences for fans.
"Great experience for tennis fans is what ATP has always stood for, and we can now take this to even greater heights with our work together.
"Fans will soon have the opportunity to get completely immersed in the action, and feel the passion and intensity in every match, and more.
"This partnership will enable us to bring new experiences in new ways to fans worldwide and will also serve to inform many new types of consumer engagements in other walks of life."
Chris Kermode, ATP executive chairman and president, said: "We are delighted to be launching this new partnership with Infosys. The opportunities surrounding technology, statistics and data in men's professional tennis are vast.
"Today's announcement is fantastic news for the ATP as we welcome an industry leader in Infosys and take an important step towards exploring new opportunities in this area. We look forward to developing a number of exciting initiatives as part of the partnership."
