Sports + Data
ABOUT SPORTSCHORD
Sportschord was founded by James Smith in March 2017. It was inspired by a desire to bring sports, data & visualisation together & was initially created as a sports prints business.
​
Today, while the prints business remains, it is also a portal for my thoughts & projects on the world of data visualisation & sports analytics.
​
By day, I work as an analytics consultant at Biztory UK - Tableau partner and part of the Belgian Cronos Group. Previously, I spent 4 years at professional services firm EY, where I trained to become a Chartered Accountant & worked on projects bridging finance and data.
