LPL20 Got multimillion-Dollarfunding from IPG Group

The Season 6 of the Lanka Premier League (LPL) is about to roll on 10th July, and right before that the league has got a major financial booster. LPL promoters, the Innovative Production Group FZ, LLC (“IPG”) has received multi-million-dollar funding support from a United States based listed entity. IPG has completed its strategic all-stock merger with Flash Sports & Media, Inc. (“Flash”) bringing its portfolio of T20 league commercial rights — including the LPL to the NASDAQ-listed platform UGRO (NASDAQ: UGRO).

The move marks a significant moment for IPG and the leagues it manages, positioning them within a publicly governed structure built for scale. Backed by this new institutional structure, IPG will invest USD 20 Million to carve out bigger and better version of LPL over next two years.  For the LPL, the transition signals the start of a more structured and growth-driven phase. While the LPL remains, intellectual property owned by Sri Lanka Cricket, IPG continues to hold exclusive commercial and media rights — now backed by institutional capital, enhanced governance standards, and long-term expansion planning.

Anil Mohan, Founder & Chairman of IPG Global, said: “LPL will be the biggest beneficiary of this new development. The integration into a publicly governed structure strengthens our ability to scale the league responsibly. With enhanced transparency, capital access, and governance standards, we are positioned to grow franchise value while maintaining long-term commercial discipline. Bradley Nattrass, Chief Executive Officer, Flash Sports & Media shares: “We believe this combination accelerates our ability to execute across multiple cricket economies simultaneously. Our focus now is on operational execution, scaling the platform with speed and precision, and long-term shareholder value creation.”
