VOGO: a Key Innovation Player at the Mayors and Local Authorities Fair (SMCL)
Our team was present at the Salon des Maires et des Collectivités Locales (SMCL) in Paris, a vital event for public sector buyers and local councils. This day allowed us to consolidate our position as a technology partner for local authorities (collectivities), highlighting the impact of our VOGOSCOPE solution in the aquatic sector.
VOGOSCOPE and Recrea: A Partnership for Learning and Performance
One of the highlights of the day was the meeting with the teams from Recrea, a major manager of sports and leisure facilities in France.
- The Goal: Strategic deployment of the VOGOSCOPE system in swimming pools managed by Recrea.
- Swimmer Performance: VOGOSCOPE offers instant video analysis tools, enabling coaches and swimmers to significantly improve their technique and performance.
- Essential Swimming Skills for All: Beyond elite sport, our collaboration aims to strengthen the teaching of fundamental swimming skills for the general public. The video tool is essential for correcting movements and teaching practice.
Innovation at the Core of Pool Construction and Refurbishment Projects
The SMCL is a prime location for discussing with builders and local authorities the integration of future technologies into sports infrastructure.
We had very constructive discussions with major players like Myrtha Pools regarding:
- New Pools: Integrating VOGOSCOPE from the design stage of future facilities.
- Basin Refurbishments: Custom solutions to modernise existing swimming pools and optimise the user experience and educational tools.
French Swimming Federation (FFN): Video Officiating and Elite Sport
Video technology is poised to transform high-level swimming, and VOGO is at the forefront of this evolution.
- Swimming Video Officiating: Discussions with the Fédération Française de Natation (FFN) about the potential use of VOGOSCOPE to ensure the reliability of officiating (or refereeing) during competitions.
- Performance Improvement: Utilising our solution for the precise analysis of elite swimmers’ movements a crucial lever for breaking new records.
VOGO: The Future of Connected Pools
The Mayors’ Fair confirmed VOGO’s commitment to delivering video solutions that serve both sporting excellence and the public service mission of aquatic education. By integrating VOGOSCOPE, local councils and pool managers are investing in safety, pedagogy, and performance.
