$30M sports tech fund launched in Lake Nona. Here’s what it’s looking for (by Alex Soderstrom)

The fund’s search for investable companies spans the globe, Rudy said. However, the fund is focused on early-stage sports tech and health tech firms, and the fund’s managers are looking for companies that will take advantage of the network of resources available in Lake Nona, which include the Johnson & Johnson Human Performance Institute, the U.S. Tennis Association National Campus and Lead’s own Sports & Health Tech Accelerator.

In fact, Rudy called Lake Nona the Silicon Valley of Sports. “Nobody’s claimed that title yet. We have funds available and are ready to deploy capital.”
