I'd seen an interview[1] elsewhere with, I believe, the founder of SportVision where they indicated that their primary source of revenue now is selling the vast amounts of telemetry data they collect during events.
His example was of the MLB, SportVision has high-resolution data on every single pitch, the MLB teams are paying through the nose for that data to run through their analytics. SportVision indicated that, based on ball trajectory, they often know more about the state of a given pitcher's health than the team or the pitcher themselves.
