In this podcast we talk with Matteo La Rosa of Koinema, a flexible and ambitious web agency based in Bologna, about Konkuri, an online service for league management and publishing. With Konkuri you can create the tournament site, generate round-robin and brackets, schedule date and time of every match, edit results and standings, write the tournament's blog, have users and visitors comments on posts and matches.
They basically try to meet the “pain” of a shared sport or game tournament scheduling and handling. Matteo is a real tournament expert, so one can learn here not only about European startups and technology, but a lot about sport leagues handling.
