Strive Tech Raises $6 Million Series A Round
Strive, a technology company primarily focused on measuring and analyzing muscle data for athletes, has raised $6 million in a Series A funding round.
Future Communities led the round, with participation from previous investors such as SeaChange Fund and SeedtoB Capital.
New investors included Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, who led the NFL in 2021 with 1,811 rushing yards and 18 rushing touchdowns, and Troy Smith, a former NFL quarterback who won the Heisman Trophy as college football’s top player while at Ohio State in 2006.
Strive works with numerous athletes and teams, including the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs and the University of Kentucky’s men’s basketball program. The company has sensors that can be inserted into compression clothing and track muscle activity to measure fatigue, load symmetry and other variables. The company offers a hardware and software platform and helps athletes train and avoid and recover from injuries.
