Cameron Fowler and Matt Sullivan co-founded Digital Seat Media, a real-time fan interaction technology platform that uses QR codes and NFC technology to link fans to companies, sports teams, and artists.

They create QR codes for sports venues and individual seats in the stadium or arena where fans can come and directly scan the codes from their devices and access their seats.

Digital Seat Media allows teams, musicians, and brands to reach fans on any device, in real-time, and with the right content.

Their services can be customized & programmed per client needs, and their QR codes have a 3+ Year Outdoor Lifespan, plus, they are resistant to different weather conditions & temperatures.

Here is a look at how they're doing today:

Cameron and Matt bootstrapped the company before raising funding from friends and family
They have raised $5M in Series A they intend to put into the expansion of their technology and marketing
The company has relied on word of mouth marketing but plans to diversify its marketing
Over 50 brands have paid to use their platform to reach fans
