Prereq: N/A
MIT’s Center for Sports Innovation (CSI) is offering a seminar series during IAP on product development in the sporting goods industry. Many companies engaged in sports product development reside in the New England area. CSI has invited representatives from several of these companies to visit the Center, and to speak to the MIT community about sports product development. Each speaker has been asked to talk about aspects of product development that they consider either most interesting or perhaps of critical importance to the ongoing success of their product line. Companies range from area start-ups, with exciting new technology just coming to market, to established companies with a long history of sports product development.
Five sessions are planned during IAP 01.
