Binovi Technologies Corp (CVE:VISN) (OTCQB:BNVIF), a neuro-vision performance technology company, announced a strategic partnership with STEM Sports Thursday with the goal of contributing to a Binovi Connect-enabled curriculum to its K-8 school grade programs.
STEM Sports provides a turnkey supplemental curriculum that uses sports as the real-life application to drive STEM-based learning in classrooms, after-school programs and camps, the company said.
"Investing in STEM-focused or STEM-based programs has proven time and time again to be a powerful way for companies to give back and to help promote new avenues of thinking,” Binovi CEO Adam Cegielski said in a statement. “With this partnership, Binovi is teaming up with an already strong group in STEM Sports to develop an important set of skills that often go overlooked. We're excited for how Jeff and his team will be able to improve the lives — in the classroom, on the field, and in everyday life — of these young minds."

"We have and will continue to collaborate with partners that see the value in investing in the education of today's students so that they can enhance the future workforce,” STEM Sports CEO Jeff Golner said. “Binovi literally sees the opportunity to enhance the technology aspects that we provide in our curricula to the benefit of K-8 schools and afterschool programs."
STEM Sports programs are currently active in school districts within 49 US states, and the company has been awarded an authenticated trustmark from STEM.org, a privately held STEM education research and credentialing organization in the US.
"Using athletics as a vehicle for learning is a powerful way to instill real-life skills into young minds that will drive them to succeed both in the game and in life,” Binovi Head of Commercialization & Strategic Partnerships Tania Archer said. “By joining forces with STEM Sports, we aim to open their student athletes' eyes to these new skills, as well as tools to promote skill advancement and performance improvement that will serve them in the same way now and throughout their lives."
