MMA.INC (NYSE: MMA), known for its cutting-edge technology in martial arts, is making significant strides by advancing its presence in the vibrant Latin American market. The aim is to support and enhance the evolution of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) through its innovative platform, BJJLink. This growth initiative is designed to foster a deeper connection among gym owners, participants, and coaches.
To spearhead this expansion, MMA.INC has mobilized a specialized task force dedicated to elevating BJJLink's reach. This task force is set to partner with over 300 gyms in key markets such as Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Mexico, and Chile. MMA.INC targets a list of notable academies, facilitating a substantial market engagement over time and transforming the way martial arts communities operate.
The potential revenue from just 300 gym partners is staggering—up to $15 million annually. This figure reflects the burgeoning growth in Latin America, where an average gym with around 200 members could significantly drive subscription and transaction-based revenue via the BJJLink platform. Additionally, MMA.INC's capacity to cross-sell programs and significantly increase active user engagement is critical to this expansion.
Fueling the Future of BJJ
“We’re helping Fuel the Future of BJJ in Latin America,” said Nick Langton, the founder and CEO of MMA.INC. He emphasized that connecting with the BJJ community is essential not just for business but for the lifestyle and evolution of BJJ itself. Latin America serves as a vital target for growth, with BJJLink offering a foundational platform for gyms, coaches, and athletes within this rapidly growing market.
With a focus on digital infrastructure, BJJLink is set to redefine how practitioners engage in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. By offering tools tailored to gym management, monetization, and community building, the platform is positioning itself as an indispensable asset in the martial arts industry.
A Gym Partner's Perspective
Commenting on the transformative partnership, Itzel Bazua, Head Coach at Zenith Mexico, shared how BJJLink’s innovative approach has significantly benefited their academy. After three years of collaboration, they decided to formalize the partnership, demonstrating a commitment to enhance their members' experience and support within the gyms.
BJJLink is making waves as the digital hub of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu revolution in Latin America, equipping academies with advanced management tools, monetization routes, and a community-focused approach. With features such as structured subscription models, academy management aids, and extensive outreach strategies, BJJLink empowers partners to thrive.
Why Latin America? Unprecedented Growth of BJJ

- Accessible Self-Defense - BJJ emphasizes technique rather than physicality, making it accessible and appealing to all ages.
- Cultural Appeal - The unique camaraderie and discipline inherent in BJJ promote community and personal growth among practitioners.
