For sports consumers, SportsBubble offers software and services to make Discovery, Access and Engagement with SPORTS easy, fast and friction-free.

Our Story
SportsBubble was founded by sports media pioneer, Lydia Murphy-Stephans, after it took her way too long to search and then access a sports event to watch on her tablet. The multi-step, time-consuming process was an epiphany moment for the sports media executive.
Lydia knew the experience she had when trying to watch a live sports event on a mobile device was a big consumer and business issue. As a serial problem-solver and entrepreneur, she was determined to make it simpler for consumers to discover, access and engage with sports. And, at the same time, provide sports event stakeholders with tools to help simplify the management of sports event information across platforms and grow engagement.
During the company’s nascent Research & Development stage, Lydia consulted with sports, media and technology experts to help shape a solution for both consumers and businesses. Chris Fehring, a former colleague and software engineer, was one of them. Chris joined SportsBubble as co-founder in 2020 and helped Lydia create the company’s WatchSports App and Sports Event Schedule Management System.
