Futnow officially joins SporTech France, the collective that brings together more than 200 innovative sports companies in France. This entry places the Bordeaux-based startup at the heart of the French sports innovation ecosystem.

Founded in 2019 by a group of startup founders, SporTech France’s mission is to bring together, represent and accelerate the development of the companies shaping the sport of tomorrow. The collective unites players across the entire sector: access to sport, athlete performance, fan experience and event organisation.

Every year, SporTech France publishes a benchmark study of the sector with PwC France. The 2026 edition counts 389 startups and scaleups in France, accounting for 6,500 jobs and an estimated revenue of €1.3 billion in 2025. It also reveals that 88% of SporTech France startups now use artificial intelligence, and that 18% make it the very core of their product (PwC France / SporTech France, Tendances de la Sportech 2026).

Among the companies in the collective are well-known players whose activities illustrate the diversity of the sector:

SkillCorner (Paris) uses artificial intelligence to extract player and ball tracking data from a single broadcast video feed. Its data is used by more than 300 organisations worldwide (clubs, leagues, federations) for recruitment and game analysis.

Rematch (Bordeaux) is an app that lets anyone film, edit and share the best moments of amateur sports matches within moments, with more than 2.5 million videos published on the platform.

Footbar (Paris) designed Meteor, a lightweight calf-worn sensor that measures players’ physical and technical performance, from amateur to professional, and equips many clubs across Europe.

Immersiv.io (Paris) develops augmented reality solutions that enrich the fan experience by displaying live player statistics, and has worked with competitions such as the Bundesliga and Roland-Garros.

Futnow is one of those companies that put artificial intelligence at the core of their product. Specialising in AI-powered sports performance tracking, the company develops computer vision models that automatically analyse indoor football matches and turn this data into performance statistics. Players access them on their smartphone as soon as their match ends, without installing any equipment themselves or wearing connected devices.

Joining SporTech France allows Futnow to connect with the startups, institutions and sports stakeholders that make up the collective, and to contribute to discussions on the future of the sector, particularly the role of data and artificial intelligence in sport.

Through this entry into the collective, Futnow pursues its ambition: to make performance analysis accessible to as many people as possible and to offer every player an augmented sporting experience.
