5 startups in February 2025🏊‍♂️

Hello 👋

Welcome back to Sportflow! 🔥

I hope you're all doing well. It's been a while since the last episode so I wanted to share some updates and explain what’s going on.

No worries — nothing critical. 😉

I’ve realized that I want to avoid unnecessary pressure on myself. I want to work at a pace that is comfortable for me. With a full-time job, training, family, and other routine my time is limited. Sportflow of course part of that life, but I’ve decided to write only when I truly want to and have the time for it.

Let’s call it the two-hour creator.

What about the newsletter format?

I still want to keep you updated on industry news, money flow, and sport startups.
I still want to create case studies.

…but.

I also want to talk more about the product journey itself.
I want to share more insights on career growth, leadership, and life in general.

That’s the only difference. 🙂

So, you’re welcome to stay subscribed — or unsubscribe anytime if you prefer. It’s entirely up to you. If my content resonated with you before, I hope you’ll continue to enjoy it!

Let’s go 🔥

A note from the author:

This is definitely one of those products in the industry where my first impression was: wow! It’s a completely new experience for the cycling industry, and I can’t even imagine what kind of integrations might come in the future. I still have many questions in my mind, but I’m confident that with its high quality, this product will find its product-market fit.

It would be interesting to check this post in one or two years and see if my prediction was correct. I’d recommend following this product, even if you’re not a cyclist, for future references and case studies.
