In this new reality, Sports need innovation more than ever. In early 2020, HYPE Sports Innovation (“HYPE”) teamed up with FIBA, Miami Dolphins, The Royal Belgian Football Association, and others, to create the first Sports Tech Global Virtual Accelerator (GVA) with the primary mission of solving the Sports industry’s real challenges in this new reality.

The first GVA cycle resulted in 17 confirmed pilots and commercial agreements (and 24 are still in the pipeline) between Sports Tech startups and some of the biggest sports clubs and federations, focusing primarily on technologies such as 5G, blockchain, AI, BIG Data, etc.

Now, as HYPE is about to launch its 2nd cycle of the Global Virtual Accelerator (GVA2.0) focused on enabling the top Sports Tech startups to secure pilots with our lead partners. GVA 2.0 is constructed of 7 Sports Tech Verticals which will be populated based on a pre-pilot selection process in which for example DFB will be presenting its actual challenges to a handpicked shortlist of startups narrowed down from around 1200+ applications. The Sports Tech startups that will be invited to come to the table, displaying the relevant technology and ability to scale stands to conduct a product/service pilot with them.

This partnership with HYPE will provide DFB with front row access to the latest technologies and innovation in the sports media industry. Ultimately, looking to integrate the relevant solution within our existing infrastructure.

 DFB: 

Dr. Friedrich Curtius, General Secretary of the DFB, remarked ahead of the program: “We are very much looking forward to sealing this partnership. Together with HYPE, a driving force in sports innovation, we will not only broaden our perspectives with regard to new endeavours. I am also excited to see innovative ideas translated into strategic projects at, and adopted by, the DFB.”

    I don't think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
