NEW YORK, March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brag House Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TBH), a pioneering media-tech platform at the intersection of gaming, college sports, and brand engagement, today announced its latest innovation roadmap following its successful public listing on Nasdaq. The company is enhancing its leadership in Gen Z engagement by integrating machine learning (ML) technology and expanding strategic data partnerships to deliver deeper proprietary insights for brands.

"An important part of our vision has always been to create a seamless connection between brands and the next generation of consumers," said Lavell Juan Malloy II, CEO & Co-Founder of Brag House.

These collaborations will enhance Brag House’s ability to deliver anonymized, actionable insights to brands, offering a smarter, more efficient way to connect with Gen Z.

Gregory Butler, CEO of ZuCasa (also known as Artemis Ave), commented:
"The Gen Z audience requires a fundamentally different approach to engagement, one that prioritizes authenticity, relevance, and interactivity. Our partnership with Brag House is a game-changer—bringing AI-powered insights to their clients without sacrificing real human connection.
