health and Fitness

We produce content about health and fitness events, innovative research, cutting-edge technologies, as well as follow funding efforts in the advancement of global health. Our focus is related to national and global health initiatives, wearables and data-capture health technologies, and other cutting-edge technical innovations.  While it can be difficult to keep up with the pace of new discoveries and research, we strive to highlight what is relevant today and beneficial for our future.  

Collaborative, Online, Integrative

New products, techniques, services, technologies, and companies are emerging every day in the health and fitness industries, centered around better collaboration between the professional and their client. Connecting people with specialists online has not only accelerated the use of integrative technologies, but it has also broadened approaches and methodologies.  Technology is specifically transforming the industries, such as internet-connected home fitness equipment, fitness and wellness apps and trackers, virtual reality training, online coaching and the digital gym, and advanced technologies like wearables and social workout devices like the Peloton bikes and the Mirror.  Equally, online forums and social networks enable a more supportive experience with other like-minded people.  

Innovations are revolutionizing all aspects of human performance through the collection and analysis of a wide range of performance data points.  The physical fitness industry has demonstrated great technology innovation through wearables that continuously monitor movement, stress, blood pressure, heart rate, and sleep as well as nutrition and medical analysis. Data collected from these systems, combined with advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning are leading to major advances in all aspects of human performance and recovery from injuries.

Pulse on Industry Through Events

Conferences and events are occurring all around the world showing advances in health.  Events are reliable indicators of what is important to people and timely for populations in the industry.  Industry events are also bringing together technology companies with health professionals not previously focused on technology, providing them with solutions to better serve their clients and more effectively quantify progress. 

Wearables Technologies

Consumers are increasingly integrating their health, fitness, and wellness activities into their daily lives through apps and wearables.  When people are traveling for business or on vacation, they are looking for ways to incorporate these activities into their plans, making both location-based apps and online fitness services a growing area in the industry.
