  Smash Your Fitness

  Sports

  Smash Your Fitness is a fitness gaming application that makes indoor cycling more accessible and engaging. Garcia's new venture, launched on November 15, 2024, aims to remove the high-cost barrier to entry often associated with virtual cycling platforms by minimizing the need for expensive hardware. Users can participate with any stationary bike by using the company's proprietary "Smashometer" wearable, a leg-mounted accelerometer that transmits cadence data to the game. The system is also compatible with smart trainers and smart bikes. The company's core business model is a subscription service, priced at $9.99 per month, with annual plans available for as low as $5.99 per month. It also sells hardware bundles, such as a Smashometer with a 3-month subscription for $49.99 or $54.99. The platform's unique selling proposition is its "equalized" fitness approach, where every user's avatar has the same fitness level within the game, regardless of their real-world strength. This levels the playing field, shifting the focus from raw power to gaming skills like steering, braking, and the strategic use of power-ups, allowing new riders to compete with seasoned athletes. The app transports cyclists to numerous immersive virtual worlds, including sci-fi maps and routes based on real locations like Paris and Dublin. It offers multiple game modes, such as workouts, tours, races, and training programs. Users can ride with others globally, join group rides, engage in head-to-head competition with live audio chat, or use an extensive library of pre-made workouts. An AI-powered coach, "Coach Cy," can create customized workout plans based on a rider's goals and history. The platform is designed for a broad audience, from casual gamers wanting to be more active to endurance athletes seeking new training formats.

  Snyder Biomedical

  Health

  Snyder Biomedical Corporation, established in 2008, is a clinical-stage company focused on developing therapies to treat and prevent degenerative eye diseases, particularly neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). Dr. Snyder is an ophthalmologist and cell biologist with extensive clinical and research experience, including serving as the Chairman of Ophthalmology at The University of Arizona. Mr. Martens is a chemical engineer and chemist with a 35-year career at 3M Corporation, holding over 100 patents in various fields, including biomedical products for eye diseases. The company's core research revolves around using L-DOPA as a novel treatment for nAMD. This approach originated from research at the University of Arizona, which discovered that L-DOPA could decrease the release of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), a key factor in the development of nAMD. Snyder Biomedical licensed this intellectual property in 2009 and has since been developing L-DOPA as a therapy. The business model is centered on research and development, with the goal of partnering with a pharmaceutical company for commercialization. Their target market includes the growing population of individuals with age-related macular degeneration, which is a leading cause of blindness in developed countries. Snyder Biomedical's primary therapeutic approach aims to provide an oral treatment that can reduce the need for frequent and costly anti-VEGF eye injections, the current standard of care. Early clinical trials have shown promising results. A "proof of concept" trial demonstrated that L-DOPA could decrease retinal fluid and improve vision in newly diagnosed nAMD patients. A subsequent trial in patients already receiving anti-VEGF injections showed a 51% decrease in the number of required injections after starting L-DOPA treatment. The company holds patents for this therapeutic approach and is preparing for a placebo-controlled phase 2 clinical trial to further validate the efficacy of L-DOPA in preventing the development of nAMD in high-risk eyes.

  Social Venture Partners Tucson

  Social Venture Partners (SVP) Tucson operates as a venture philanthropy organization, connecting local philanthropists, known as Partners, with nonprofit organizations to strengthen their community impact. Ann Lovell was a founding board member of the Tucson chapter, which has since grown to include 130 members. As of September 2022, SVP Tucson has channeled over $2 million into its initiatives. The business model centers on engaged philanthropy, where Partners contribute not only financial resources but also their professional skills and expertise to support nonprofits. This hands-on approach includes capacity-building projects, leadership coaching, and strategic advisory services to help nonprofits operate more effectively and grow sustainably. SVP Tucson's clients are nonprofits in Southern Arizona working to address social issues like poverty and justice. The organization itself is funded by its Partners and through community fundraising efforts. A cornerstone of SVP Tucson's programming is the annual Fast Pitch event. This program provides selected nonprofit leaders with a free, five-month training and mentoring curriculum focused on storytelling, marketing strategy, and donor relations. It culminates in a live showcase where leaders present a three-minute pitch to a global audience for a chance to win a share of over $100,000 in funding. The 2024 event alone raised over $61,000. Another key initiative is the 2Gen Nonprofit Collaboration, which adopts a two-generation (2Gen) approach focused on supporting children and their parents simultaneously. This program, supported by a grant from Ascend at the Aspen Institute, facilitates collaboration among several nonprofits to provide holistic, family-centered services and drive better educational and financial outcomes.
