CUE Audio, SIDEARM Sports Establish Relationship to Create Opportunities to Enhance Collegiate Fan Engagement

DENVER, October 30, 2018 (Newswire.com) - CUE Audio and SIDEARM Sports announced today a new relationship that will change the way collegiate sports fans experience events using SIDEARM-powered mobile apps.

Using CUE’s data-over-audio technology, colleges and universities with a SIDEARM mobile app will be able to create synchronized light shows, synchronized selfies, and trivia and coupons for delivery with smartphones – without the need for cellular service or a Wi-Fi connection.

The technology CUE brings to our collegiate athletic mobile apps allows our clients' new opportunities to engage with their loyal fans. It also fosters an abnormally high level of reliability and widespread adoption because a Wi-Fi or cellular connection isn't required to launch or participate in the engagements.
