HOW TO APPLY

Studying towards a PhD in Education
Chief Executive, Monitr

"I鈥檓 looking at ways to use athletes data to reduce injuries. Right now athletes wear some very clever devices that gather a whole range of metrics such as distance covered and top speeds. I get to take all this information and find ways to use it. I love it because I鈥檓 helping athletes get to a stage where they鈥檙e reaching their potential. It鈥檚 not a dust collector PhD!

I鈥檇 always wanted to turn my research into something I can apply in the real world. I stumbled across the Centre of Entrepreneurship鈥檚 start-up programme. We did a pitch competition and won. We also won the entr茅 85K startup challenge for our product called Komodo Monitr and received $17,500 cash and $10,000 of in-kind services."
