London-based PA Sport, a leading sports information provider, has agreed to acquire SportsTicker from ESPN, the companies said Wednesday.


The new entity will be called PA SportsTicker and will build on SportsTicker’s position as a key player in delivering real-time content to the North American market. The two companies have had a long relationship in supplying content to each other and PA SportsTicker will continue to be a supplier of worldwide sport information to ESPN, the companies said.


SportsTicker has been a leading content provider in the United States since 1909 and, like PA Sport, developed a capability for delivering real-time sport to such clients as Yahoo Sport, Microsoft, Sportsline.com and Fox Sports.
