Manchester 2023 Para Swimming World Championships announce eo as official partner

Australian sports technology company eo has been announced as the Official Wearable Technology Partner of the Manchester 2023 Para Swimming World Championships, to be held at the newly refurbished Manchester Aquatics Centre from 31 July to 6 August 2023. 

The innovative sports technology brand will harness the profile of the world’s biggest para swimming event outside of the Paralympics to raise awareness of its revolutionary eo SwimBETTER product amongst the 600 plus international athletes competing, thousands of fans in attendance, and millions of fans watching around the world.

eo SwimBETTER supports swimmers by collecting unique data to measure and quantify the force of their hands and their orientation whilst they swim. eo SwimBETTER tracks metrics such as force, force direction and hand position through each stroke, enabling swimmers and their coaches to analyse efficiency and effort to refine their technique for better performance. 

eo is dedicated to helping athletes redefine their limits with products that improve performance, accelerate recovery, prevent injury and aid rehabilitation. eo SwimBETTER is designed for professional athletes, their coaches and support staff, and for the serious amateur who wants to train like a professional. 

Katie Chapman, Para Swimming World Championships Event Director, said: “By embracing eo’s commitment to progress and innovation, we can showcase how para swimmers and their coaches can benefit from SwimBETTER by recording insightful, motivating and accurate measurements. This will showcase and improve performance, and support the development of para swimming around the world.”

Jaimie Fuller, eo’s Chairman and Co-Founder, said: “eo believes that every body has vast potential waiting to be unlocked and that science holds the key. We set new standards for what can be achieved and our purpose is to accelerate progress, in sport and in life. The Manchester 2023 Para Swimming World Championships will enable us to showcase eo SwimBETTER and demonstrate the role we can play in revolutionising para swimming.”

Manchester 2023 will be the third time the World Championships have taken place in Great Britain. The last time in London 2019, 637 swimmers from 73 nations were welcomed with 188 records broken, including 39 world records, and over 143 million people watching around the world - with the stage set for more of the same this summer.
