All things and CEO of PLAYR Playrsmartcoach.com , Member of publicly listed ( CAT.ASX ) executive team. After acquiring Dublin based sports performance analytics platform PlayerTek and integrating their excellent SW dev team, I started to build all the foundations and added the required skills ( industrial design, HW engineering, manufacturing, quality control, brand, design, sales & ops ) so to launch in June 2018 the company's first wearable ( PLAYR ) aimed at helping elite aspiring athletes prepare as the pro's do. Starting with soccer and targeting the 40 M registered FIFA players. Part of the Catapult Sports ( www.catapultsports.com ) group who has been dominating the Elite performance monitoring industry for more then 12 years, I am very proudly running PLAYR as an agile and autonomous "startup", leading a team of 30+ people covering all functions with offices in Dublin, Taiwan and London. Between November 2016 and March 2018, I was also operating as the group CMO role being mainly tasked to completely revisit the Catapult brand. Something highly complex since it had never been done since inception back in 2006. This resulted in a significant audit, exploration and design process and ultimately led to the release/rollout of our new identity in August 2017, working in close partnership with design agency Layer design and an in-house team of VP brand, brand manager and graphic designers. Accomplishments : Ideation to market launch of PLAYR within 15 months, now available globally through our website and ranged by some of the most respected retailers in the US/UK & Australia. Our rating on Trustpilot is 9.2 and cumulates in excess of 500 reviews ( Amazon rating is well above 4 ) which is a testament to the product excellence as well as to the overall customer experience we do offer. Assembled a high performing and diverse team working tirelessly towards disrupting one of the world's biggest industry.
