In this episode, CJ Handron of Diamond Kinetics gives us a deep dive into the evolution of sports tech (since they were one of the first companies in the space over a decade ago).

Handron is an alumnus of the University of Pittsburgh entrepreneurship program and discusses the company's journey over the last decade, and its products aimed at the baseball and softball industry.

We also delve into the future of sports tech - with an emphasis on the use of AI and video in capturing detailed game data. CJ sheds light on some challenges of building Diamond Kinetics in a non-tech hub and how remote work has shifted this paradigm.
