\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to announce our latest growth investment, which will help accelerate our ability to transform the ticketing industry,\u201d said O\u2019Brien in a statement. \u201cWe founded TickPick with the unwavering commitment to deliver a transparent and hassle-free ticket-buying experience for consumers.

\n\tGoldberg added, \u201cWe have built a relationship with Brighton Park over many years and the firm is our clear partner of choice given its strong track record of partnering with founder-led companies and marketplace platforms, which we believe will help us continue to scale the business and drive a lasting impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tKevin Magan<\/strong>, partner at Brighton Park Capital, added, \u201cTickPick has demonstrated tremendous growth by offering a strong value proposition that both enhances the customer experience and removes one of the biggest pain points for consumers with its no-fee model. TickPick\u2019s recent growth and partnerships with some of the largest sports leagues and teams in the world is a testament to their appeal among a broad customer base, and we\u2019re excited to partner with Brett, Chris and the incredibly talented TickPick team as they continue to disrupt the ticketing industry.\u201d<\/p>\n
