ZonMw Sportinnovator award for WearM.AI Prize money to be used for pilot with semi-professional runner

On 21 May 2025, the ZonMw Sportinnovator network held its yearly meetup, this time in Wageningen. Part of the meetup included a "Play-offs" session during which 15 Sports Innovator Center initiatives pitched to a jury about their plans of the innovative development in sport and movement. Dr. Huawei Wang presented his plans for WearM.AI, as representative of the Sports Tech Center Twente ecosystem, and was selected as one of the five winners. He will be using the prize (20.000 EUR) to conduct a small pilot study with their wearable sports digital twin solution on a semi-professional runner.
