Sunnyvale, CA (April 18, 2023) - HCLSoftware and the European Cricket Network (ECN) announced today a software, event and branding partnership extension for the entire year of matches on the European Cricket Network.

HCL Unica provides the precision marketing that will fuel ECN’s drive towards making cricket the number one bat and ball team sport in Europe. In addition to HCL Unica, ECN is using HCL Discover for website analytics providing deep behavioural insights into the online user journey, leading to positive experiences and increased online conversions. Additionally, the ECN is using Avalanche Cloud Data Platform from HCL Actian for real-time data insight to inform live updates from commentators.

“We are thrilled to extend our partnership with the European Cricket Network,” said Kalyan Kumar, Chief Product Officer, HCLSoftware. “It is exciting to see our technology play such a vital role in further enhancing the experience of such a passionate fan base.”

This year, the ECN is hosting more than 30 events and creating more than 1,400 cricket matches in TV quality broadcasts, including the FanCode European Cricket Series, European Cricket League and Dream11 European Cricket Championship.
