Enhanced Games: Reformulating the Olympics

A new initiative by Dr. Aaron D 'Souza and Christian Angamaya aims to revolutionize the traditional Olympic model. Their motivation stemmed from the disparity in revenue distribution where athletes often received a minimal share. By creating a new platform free from the limitations and restrictions of the current Olympic Committee, the Enhanced Games seek to focus on athletes' welfare and provide fair compensation for their efforts. The Enhanced Games represent a modern, honest approach to sports competitions in the 21st century.
