* **Myself:**I am the neurodiverse, female cofounder of a new and innovative HealthTech business based in Dorset. Most recently, I led 3 departments (product/marketing/engagement) at an HRTech-startup in London that was co-founded by two high-profile, serial tech-entrepreneurs and funded by tier-1 investors. Before that, I founded a software and marketing agency in London in my early twenties and ran it successfully for 7 years with my business partner. I learned about business from my father's large commercial farm in Zimbabwe. I love public-speaking and welcome the opportunity to be a role-model to other neurodiverse, female founders, and entrepreneurial-expats like myself.* **My business:**TurboGaming is a healthTech business that aims to tackle the alarming statistics regarding insufficient physical activity during childhood/adolescence, and the downstream effects thereof.In the UK, more than half of 6-16yr olds (55.4%) are insufficiently active (SportsEngland, 2021). Whilst 1-in-3 leave primary school already overweight/obese (Department of Health&Social Care).In the USA, only 23% of high school students are sufficiently active while 46% spend a whopping 3+ hours per day playing sedentary video games. (Centers for Disease Control?evention, 2019)._**The Vision:**_ Convert 100+ popular, mainstream racing-games on PlayStation and Xbox, into pedal-powered fitness-games, played from our new, game-changing, IoT 'bicycle-games-controller'. More than doubling the number of fitness-games available on the market in less than 5 years, without developing any new games.Compatible games include Disney Cars, Sonic, Hot Wheels, Wreckfest, Forza Horizon, Rocket League, F1 and many more.The founding team has 33 years of combined experience and the chosen subcontractor specialises in human-centred design with experts in bicycle related design.* **My idea:**Think of it as a **'bicycle-arcade'** for children/tweens/teens.Pedal-power equates to in-game speed utilising one of two proprietary algorithms;a. Social/Inclusiveb. Fair/Competitive (Enabling eSports)Handlebars rotate to steer whilst triggers and joysticks on the grips allow players to brake, shoot or jump.Testing a proof-of-concept prototype yielded unanimous enthusiasm from children/tweens/teens whilst parents cheered for them, like it was sports day! We have a growing waiting-list of beta-testers waiting for units.A new 'Strava-meets-Twitch' application will connect users, gamify participation (leaderboards/badges/trophies), and host athletic-eSports. The app will provide an age-appropriate, 'digital sports club' experience._**Award-plan:**_As well as mentoring, I plan to strengthen my knowledge and business network through the bootcamps and expert advice. I plan to complete the R&D for beta units, and the MVP following beta-testing, ahead of a commercialised post-project MVP-launch.

***我本人：**我是神经差，是多塞特郡新的，创新的Healthtech业务的女联合创始人。最近，我在伦敦的HRTECH-Startup领导了3个部门（产品/营销/参与度），该部门由两位备受瞩目的串行技术企业家共同创立，并由Tier-1 Investors资助。在此之前，我在二十多岁的时候在伦敦创立了一个软件和营销机构，并与我的业务合作伙伴成功运行了7年。我从父亲在津巴布韦的大型商业农场中学到了业务。我喜欢公开的讲话，并欢迎有机会成为其他神经多样性，女性创始人和像我这样的企业家expats的角色模型。活跃不足（Sportsengland，2021）。尽管1英寸3英寸离开小学已经超重/肥胖（卫生与社会护理部）。在美国，只有23％的高中学生足够活跃，而46％的学生每天花费3个小时以上的时间玩久坐的视频游戏。 （疾病控制中心？evention，2019年）._ **愿景：** _将100多个流行的，PlayStation上的主流赛车游戏和Xbox转换为踏板驱动的健身游戏，从我们的新型游戏变化，iot“ bicycle-games-games-controller”中播放。 More than doubling the number of fitness-games available on the market in less than 5 years, without developing any new games.Compatible games include Disney Cars, Sonic, Hot Wheels, Wreckfest, Forza Horizo​​n, Rocket League, F1 and many more.The founding team has 33 years of combined experience and the chosen subcontractor specialises in human-centred design with experts in bicycle related design.* **My idea:**Think of it as a **'自行车 - 阶级'**适用于儿童/青少年/青少年。PADAL-PARE等于使用两种专有算法之一的游戏速度； a。社交/包容性。公平/竞争性的（启用电子竞技）车把旋转为转向，而握把上的触发器和操纵杆使玩家可以制动，射击或跳跃。测试概念证明的原型，产生了孩子/二聚体/青少年的一致热情，因为他们像他们一样为他们欢呼雀跃，就像运动日一样！我们有越来越多的beta测试列表等待单位。一个新的“ Strava-creats-twitch”应用程序将连接用户，Gamify参与度（排行榜/徽章/奖杯）和主持人的运动运动。该应用程序将提供适合年龄的“数字体育俱乐部”体验。我计划在商业化后的MVP启动之前完成Beta单元的研发和Beta测试后的MVP。
