Case Study: adidas Cardio<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An innovative 7 product cardio launch for adidas. The range includes treadmills, bikes, cross trainers and a rower. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My involvement was from concept through commercialization and after sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This range was a ground-up innovation, to include tooling. The self generating product, with unique light up features was well received in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
