• Collaboration creates scalable, multi-event revenue pathways fueled by authenticated engagement

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN -- Datavault AI Inc. (Nasdaq: DVLT) (“Datavault” or “the Company”), a leader in data monetization, credentialing, and digital engagement technologies, today announced it has executed an agreement with the World Boxing Council (WBC)¹. The software licensing deal brings Datavault’s patented ADIO ultrasonic engagement technology, DataVault, VerifyU,  and Information Data Exchange (IDE) platform² to WBC championship events throughout the remainder of 2025 and 2026.

The WBC sanctions major boxing events distributed across more than 170 countries through broadcast and streaming partners¹ and is one of the most recognized and influential sanctioning bodies in professional boxing. Founded in 1963, the WBC has played a central role in shaping modern sport, establishing global standards for fighter safety, competition integrity, officiating, and event regulation. WBC’s greatest champions include Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Julio Cesar Chavez, Oscar de La Hoya, Sugar Ray Leonard, Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao among others.

Datavault and the WBC will share in event-driven revenue generated through ADIO and IDE activations on a 50/50 basis.

The Global Reach of the WBC

WBC major championship fights operate across broadcast television, streaming networks, social platforms, and in-venue environments, giving Datavault the ability to capture authenticated interactions in real time across every channel. These engagements can flow directly into the IDE platform, creating compliance-ready datasets for sponsor reporting, audience segmentation, attribution analysis, and post-event monetization.

Recent WBC-affiliated championship fights have demonstrated extraordinary global reach, including a reported 41 million viewers for the Canelo Álvarez vs. Terence Crawford event². This scale offers Datavault a broad operating environment for capturing authenticated audience engagement across one of the world’s largest live-event ecosystems.

As WBC events accumulate throughout the year, the resulting datasets can form a scalable, durable asset that can be commercialized across recurring sponsorship cycles. Brands gain the ability to evaluate performance with greater precision. Rights-holders receive validated reporting. Datavault’s technology supports the entire lifecycle of this data creation, authentication, valuation, and deployment.
