I am sure that it will be perfectly complementary to the eyes ball vision and the statistical tool. His notation and projection system, its up to date database and its filter system sometimes lead us to the discovery of new profiles or reinforce us on others already known.

I’m convinced SciSports’ platform will provide value to their team of experts.

I look forward to a long standing relationship between the two parties.”
