Olympic-Standard Sports Training Facility Management Service
The Opportunity
Gujarat government is investing ₹1,331 crore to develop Ahmedabad as an 'Olympic-ready' city with world-class sports infrastructure, but lacks specialized operational management expertise. There is a critical gap between capital investment in facilities and the skilled management, coaching coordination, and athlete development systems needed to maximize these investments and produce competitive athletes.

Business Model
B2B service provider offering end-to-end facility management, coaching coordination, athlete performance analytics, nutrition planning, and international competition preparation for state sports academies and Olympic training centers.
