Le Tremplin, a prestigious innovation platform dedicated to sport and supported by the Paris economic development and innovation agency Paris&Co, has selected NeoXperiences from 122 applicants to join its 6th promotion alongside 13 other startups, future nuggets of SportTech.
Every year for the past 6 years, the Tremplin jury has selected startups that put innovation and technology at the service of tomorrow's sport. These companies benefit from the guidance and support of the Tremplin's many partners. Selection is based on a number of criteria, including the innovative nature of the concept, its economic potential and ability to create jobs, and the potential for international distribution of the innovation.
NeoXperiences is revolutionizing the sports and entertainment market by contributing to well-being through physical activity, to reconnecting with reality through shared experiences, and to education and awareness through gamification. Based in Caen, the company develops immersive, interactive playgrounds to offer fun, user-friendly sports experiences, accessible to all, that use new technologies to restore a taste for physical activity.
The health crisis and confinement have led to a sharp drop in sporting activity, and a growing awareness of the need to develop new, attractive and fun ways of approaching sport. The innovation proposed by NeoXperiences provides a pertinent response to societal challenges linked to health, well-being and the need for regular physical activity.
Boris Courté, founder of NeoXperiences, comments: " The entire NeoXperiences team is proud and delighted to be part of the Springboard 2020 class. We look forward to collaborating with major companies, institutions and other startups around a common challenge: developing innovation in the sports sector to meet the major challenges of today and tomorrow."
Charles Frémont, director of Le Tremplin, comments: " NeoXperiences won over our jury with an innovative technological solution that encourages and diversifies the practice of sports. The playgrounds developed by NeoXperiences, halfway between sports and video games, enable everyone to renew their sporting experience, whatever their age or level of fitness. It's a vision that matches Le Tremplin's ambition: to encourage the development of technological innovations that benefit the world of sport and enhance its appeal."
