Sometimes back, I wrote a post about the many ways big data is changing the sports industry landscape (here).

Recently, researchers at the Northwestern University School of Professional Studies conducted a thorough research on collective efforts that are being made specifically in this direction. I found the related infographic extremely informative and share-worthy. The infographic has been reproduced below with permission.
