Greater Sum Ventures today announced a majority investment in Tapin2, a leading provider of self-service, suite catering and mobile ordering technology for sports and entertainment venues. The transaction marks GSV’s second major investment in the live venue technology space, following its majority investment in MyVenue, the cloud-native point-of-sale platform, one year ago.
“Incredibly, these combined solutions are used in over 70% of MLB and NFL stadiums, reflecting a shared, relentless focus on helping venues deliver incredible guest experiences. Together our brands offer the most complete, modern, and open technology stack in the market,” said Tim Stollznow, Chief Executive Officer of MyVenue. “GSV has been an exceptional partner over the past year, and their continued conviction in this space provides the perfect platform to accelerate innovation for our customers.”
This acquisition reflects GSV’s confidence in venue technology as one of the most attractive end markets in vertical software, underpinned by sustained investment in sports and entertainment, growing demand for digital fan experiences, and a clear customer preference for integrated, mission-critical platforms.
“Venue technology is a compelling investment play, anchored by world-class operators and a real need for modern, reliable software at the point of guest engagement,” said Ross Croley, CEO and Founder of Greater Sum Ventures. “Our additional investment in Tapin2, alongside MyVenue, reflects our continued belief in the sector. Bringing these two leading brands together creates a complete partner for venues, and the capability to support their most critical operations today and in the future.”
Tony Christopoulos, Co-Founder and CTO of Tapin2, added, “From day one, Tapin2 has been built around people and products that serve this industry, not just technology for technology’s sake. Every feature is shaped by the operators, partners, and venues we work alongside. Joining forces with MyVenue, with the support of GSV, lets us double down on what we do best: building industry-focused products with the best people in the business, on behalf of the customers who count on us every day.”
The combined organization will continue to operate the existing brands, with expanded opportunities for collaboration on product, go-to-market, and customer success. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
