Henrik Teisbæk: How AI-powered Video can Unlock Opportunity for Grassroots Sports with Veo's CEO

Today’s episode, I’m joined by Henrik Teisbæk, co-founder
and CEO of Veo Technologies. 


Veo was founded in Copenhagen in 2015  with a
vision to democratise video broadcasting and analytics which at
the time was reserved mostly for professional teams. 


The company creates smart, AI-powered cameras that let anyone
record their match without a camera operator. The automatic
recording and video-editing then enables coaches and players to
watch and share their sport. 


While predominantly focused on football, I recently partnered
with Veo when I launched the Sports Pundit rugby predictor game
for both the men’s and women’s Six Nations. From that initial
conversation about a partnership also grew a curiosity to learn
more about their product, as well as how it was being utilised -
particularly at the grassroots level - something rarely discussed
within sports industry content.
