Join All Things Blockchain AMA Online Series for an exclusive session with Tori West, Australian Olympian and founder of Equil Labs. Fresh from competing in the Paris Olympics, Tori is back at work building innovative web3 solutions that empower athletes to retain ownership of their training and competition data.
Tori West is an Australian Olympian and founder of Equil Labs, a pioneering web3 platform focused on empowering athletes to own and monetise their training and competition data. After narrowly missing out on the Tokyo Olympics, Tori’s dedication saw her achieve some of the best heptathlon scores in Australian history, culminating in her qualification for the Paris 2024 Olympics. Tori’s athletic journey is marked by resilience and versatility, having excelled across various disciplines, including boxing and javelin, before mastering the heptathlon.
Beyond her athletic achievements, Tori is a trailblazer in the blockchain space, utilising her skills as a developer to address the imbalance in athlete data ownership. At Equil Labs, she is dedicated to creating solutions that allow athletes to control and monetise their data, reflecting her commitment to both her sport and technological innovation. Tori’s dual path as an elite athlete and a web3 developer showcases her passion for disrupting traditional models and supporting the athlete community.
Did you know that athletes often lose control of their personal data when they compete on a national level, signing away rights to centralised institutions that can sell and profit from this valuable information? Tori’s mission at Equil Labs is to challenge this status quo by giving athletes the tools to own, control, and monetise their data on their own terms, in line with the true ethos of decentralisation.
In this session, Tori will share insights into her dual journey of training as an elite athlete in a highly competitive field while navigating the fast-paced world of web3 development. She will discuss her experience of securing a sought-after grant in the competitive web3 space and balancing the demands of sport and tech innovation. Expect a deep dive into the challenges, opportunities, and future of athlete data ownership in a decentralised world.
Don’t miss this chance to hear directly from a trailblazer who’s breaking barriers both on the track and in the blockchain space!
