Comcast NBCUniversal SportsTech Demo Day Ready to Launch; Event Powered by Boomtown Accelerators

Ten sports tech startups. Twelve weeks of building, prototyping, testing and proving concepts. One day to show major sports industry companies and investors the innovations that will change the future of sports.

Startup founders will tell their stories and showcase their companies at Comcast NBCUniversal SportsTech’s 2022 Demo Day on Thursday, May 26 in Atlanta. The program is powered by Boomtown Accelerators, an innovation platform in Boulder whose bespoke, turnkey approach represents the next generation of corporate accelerator.

Headlining the online event will be Zuri Hall, an Emmy award-winning television actress, personality, and producer; and professional wrestler Mike “The Miz” Mizanin.

Hall is a correspondent for Access Hollywood on NBC and is also the sideline reporter for NBC’s primetime summer competition show American Ninja Warrior.

Mizanin, first introduced to TV audiences as one of seven strangers on The Real World: Back to New York, parlayed his reality TV fame into a WWE career. Mike is a wrestler, host and actor, as well as an eight-time WWE Intercontinental Champion along with many more champion titles.
