In a move to further advance innovation and protective equipment on the gridiron, the NFL and Football Research Inc. launched the HeadHealthTECH Challenge, an opportunity for entrepreneurs and early-stage startups to receive grant money to develop their products and ideas around the sport of football.
The HeadHealthTECH Challenge is one aspect of a $60-million program funded by the NFL and managed on behalf of FRI by Duke University’s Clinical and Translational Science Institute.
