Why do most sports injuries among professional athletes happen? “The majority of these big superstars think it’s down to pure bad luck,” says Stephen Smith, CEO of Kitman Labs. “We’re here to say that it’s not.”
Smith is not from a tech background, rather he worked in pro sports as a rehab coach, but he realised that there was a significant role for data to play in preventing injuries, so set up Kitman Labs. “We can see that applying decent, strong analytics and science to what we do everyday is the route forward,” he says, speaking on stage at Pioneers Festival in Vienna.
