Sportlogiq was founded by Craig Buntin, an Olympic Athlete, and Mehrsan Javan, a PhD in computer vision and machine learning, with the support of the TandemLaunch incubator and investor Mark Cuban.
As an Olympic athlete and 7-time Canadian national team member, Craig recognized the need for advanced analytics in sports, something that would have completely changed the way he trained and performed. He retired from professional sports and partnered with Mehrsan who, at the time, was specializing in statistical modeling with more than 10 years of experience in algorithm development for intelligent systems.
Together, they created Sportlogiq.
We started with professional hockey, and from our HQ in Montreal, Quebec, we now work with the vast majority of teams in the NHL, including the last 5 Stanley Cup Champions. We've also recently deployed our AI technology and expertise into soccer, football, and lacrosse and power the data operations of top global digital media and broadcasting organisations, as well as continuing to make a difference in professional performance analysis.
We now have a team of over 100 passionate colleagues, working from 3 offices globally. And we're only just getting started.
