Contributing to the preparations for Paris Olympics 2024, Stupa is providing advanced performance analytics and data support to the Indian team.
Deepak Malik, Co-Founder & COO, of Stupa Sports Analytics and former coach of the Indian Table Tennis Team, oversaw all analytical requirements during the camp and also offered valuable suggestions and inputs, based on the data derived from Stupa’s smart AI solutions to both players and the coaching staff.
