Orlando mental wellness startup backed by NFL players to launch app and open training rooms (by Alex Soderstrom)

Nestre Health & Performance Inc. was founded in 2018, but it really started 22 years ago when head injuries forced founder Tommy Shavers to quit playing football at the University of Central Florida.

Two decades later, Shavers and his startup are ready to go to market with a series of solutions meant to provide customized cognitive training and open up a new world of fitness, he told Orlando Inno. “We’re branding and scaling the future of fitness.”

Nestre is an example of the burgeoning sports and health tech startup ecosystem in Lake Nona.
