deWiz’s Revolutionary Wearable Technology Delivers Groundbreaking Swing Data and Immediate Feedback to Help Golfers Hit the Ball Longer, Straighter and Closer
(Malmö, Sweden): To celebrate the company’s one-year anniversary, deWiz™ is sponsoring its home country’s marquee golf event, the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed hosted by deWiz global ambassadors Annika Sörenstam and Henrik Stenson. Debuting last June, deWiz is a pioneering wearable technology that combines high-precision data with exact measurements of golfers’ swing and real-time biometric feedback to increase their pace of learning via neuroscience.
Staged at the Halmstad Golf Club on Sweden’s west coast from June 9-12, deWiz will stage an activation near the driving range where golf fans can experience deWiz firsthand and get a free swing analysis from our data science team. From elite professionals to avid golfers looking to improve their game, deWiz is a high-tech swing analyzer designed to help all types of golfers modify their swing.
Laszlo Varga, CEO of deWiz Golf: ”As a Swedish-based company, it is with great pride that we support the pinnacle of professional golf in Sweden, the Volvo Cars Scandinavian Mixed. deWiz’s wearable tech is fueling innovation to help golfers better understand their swing aby helping them hit the ball longer, straighter and closer. We are breaking new ground with our technology and that complements the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed’s innovative approach of showcasing both the men’s and women’s game on its global stage. This relationship also extends to our ambassadors and tournament hosts Annika Sörenstam and Henrik Stenson, who both use deWiz as a competitive edge to further refine their golf swings.”
Alvaro Martinez, Partnership Manager, Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed: “We are delighted to announce deWiz as partner. deWiz has been created in Sweden, developed and tested by major golf champions like Henrik Stenson and Annika Sorenstam, both deWiz ambassadors and hosts of the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed. With deWiz’s wearable tech, golf practice becomes more enjoyable with instant feedback to improve your swing. Our players, partners and visitors will be able to experience this innovative new technology first-hand at the tournament. In brief, deWiz matches perfectly with values as innovation and gender equality, two of the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed core values.”
