Rallycast: How Edge Sound Research is Changing the Game with New SportsTech — Valtteri Salomaki

The average courtside ticket to an NBA game is priced at around $2,000.

Podcast Summary

The average courtside ticket to an NBA game is priced at around $2,000, according to Sportskeeda. While this might be manageable for celebrities or CEOs, it often places that premium experience out of reach for the average sports fan. However, Valtteri Salomaki and his innovative team at Edge Sound Research are changing that by using the power of vibrations and patent-pending technology to replicate the courtside experience, no matter where you're seated. Valtteri, the CEO and Co-Founder of Edge Sound Research, is at the forefront of bringing realism to sound experiences through vibration. The company has been gaining traction, participating in the Minnesota Twins Accelerator powered by Techstars, the NBA Launchpad program, and winning the Rally IN-Prize pitch competition.

During Valtteri's visit to Indianapolis for Rally, we had the chance to dive deeper into Edge Sound Research's journey. We discussed how connecting with the amateur sports capital of the world could elevate their business to new heights. This episode of Get IN., brought to you by Powderkeg and Elevate Ventures, highlights the unfolding stories and extraordinary innovations happening in the heartland. Our conversation with Valtteri sheds light on revolutionary SportsTech advancements, the process of turning university research into real-world innovation, and why Indiana is the ultimate hub for nurturing SportsTech companies. Rally, the largest global cross-sector innovation conference, celebrates connections between companies, entrepreneurs, investors, and universities, featuring a $5M cash IN-Prize pitch competition, 1:1 investor meetups, a demo arena, content sessions, and more. Join us for Rally 2024 from August 27-29 in downtown Indianapolis and register now for early bird prices.
