Copenhagen, Denmark & Miami, USA - 30 September 2022.
Carli Lloyd joins Veo as global ambassador to inspire the next generation of soccer players through technology. Veo empowers sports teams at all levels with advanced video, live-broadcast, and analysis tools; the Danish sports tech company recently raised $80M in Series C Funding.
Lloyd reached GOAT status when she became the first woman – and the second player behind Sir Geoff Hurst – to score a hat-trick in a World Cup Final. She was, however, the only player to achieve the feat in normal time.
As the two-time World Cup winner writes her next chapter following an extraordinary 17-year career, she is championing a platform in Veo that is dedicated to closing the technological and coverage gaps in sport. The former USWNT Captain oozes a shared belief in the power of video to positively impact sport at all levels - being able to study your game and become the best player you can be.
“I am super stoked to be Veo ambassador. I can’t express how significant it is to be able to watch yourself play. And with Veo’s technology - and all of the different statistics and [tools] that you can analyze within your game - it’s world-class.” - Carli Lloyd
Two of the best players in the world have now teamed up with Veo to inspire the next generation. Earlier this year, Kevin De Bruyne announced a two-year partnership with Veo to elevate his elite youth tournament, The KDB Cup, while Lloyd has implemented the tech at her CL10 soccer clinics.
Lloyd met up with Veo to share her learnings from a remarkable career and explore the company’s current and emerging software innovations. You can expect a Carli Lloyd masterclass exploring the ins and outs of what it takes to become a great #10 and a sneak peek at future Veo analysis tools.
“We’re delighted to have Carli Lloyd - a global icon - become Veo ambassador. This partnership enables us to test innovations with one of the greatest minds in sport and transfer her knowledge to grassroots coaches, players, and parents…inspiring them to embrace a new era of sports on all levels. - Henrik Teisbæk, CEO, Veo Technologies
Carli Lloyd was known for being a creative, intelligent player, who loved scoring goals. Her outrageous strike from the halfway line in that 2015 World Cup Final capped off an astonishing 13-minute hattrick and earned a Puskas Award nomination alongside Lionel Messi. Now, Lloyd is looking to the Veo community to entertain her with some quality goals and skills by sending in their #veomoment’s. Will we see a grassroots Puskas nomination in the future…?
