Just like Watson, the Executive Summary ProGauntlet is a technological solution that is looking for a problem to solve. The initial aim of this project was precisely this: finding In 2011, the world watched in amazement how IBM’s AI named another market for the ProGauntlet. Watson won at Jeopardy!. Right afterwards, IBM decided to use this power to revolutionize the healthcare system. AI doctors would The research method consisted of a product analysis, literature change everyone’s lives. Sadly, Watson did not revolutionize research and user research, mainly in the form of interviews. The healthcare. It did not prove to be as useful in reality as was most promising markets were researched in-depth: ice hockey, field anticipated1. hockey, lacrosse, kendo, Filipino Martial Arts (FMA) and motorcycle riding. Of these, the only people that would benefit from the How could this happen? ProGauntlet (besides HEMA) is a certain niche of the FMA. This group consists of about only 500 people, so this is a nice addition to the In short, IBM started with a very specific use case, then invented a total market for the ProGauntlet, but it definitely isn’t a sustainable super high-tech solution for it, and then started wondering how it market for CrossGuard. could actually be useful2. Since there is no viable future market for the ProGauntlet, the main This example actually illustrates the problem that CrossGuard has. focus of this project has become to determine the most interesting Luckily, CrossGuard’s problem is multiple orders of magnitude market in which to introduce a redesigned protective glove. Based smaller than it was for IBM. on the research, this appears to be field hockey. CrossGuard is a company that has developed a protective glove for Therefore, a strategy for entering the field hockey market is so-called Historical European Martial Arts (HEMA), or medieval sword proposed.

It has been designed to be that it does not restrain the user in any way. withstand high-impact blows from steel swords repeatedly, to protect the users’ hands from virtually any type of impact during HEMA. The suggested positioning for the field hockey market is therefore: unrestrained protection. A great advantage of this positioning is Not only do they protect very well, they also let the user move their that it could also work for the ProGauntlet and simultaneously opens hands naturally, without restricting the freedom of movement. It is a clear path to future innovations for CrossGuard. the ultimate HEMA glove, but as the HEMA market is relatively small, CrossGuard wants to make the ProGauntlet useful for other REAL-WORLD IMPLICATIONS purposes, too.

Introduction REPORT STRUCTURE In this report, the potential markets are analyzed and selection is made, in order to give strategic advice to CrossGuard. This has happened through a combination of literature research, user research and some real-life testing. The markets that are researched in-depth are: ice hockey, field hockey, lacrosse, kendo, Filipino martial arts and motorcycle riding. The research methods are described in the next section, followed by a more detailed description of the context of HEMA. Afterwards, the most important results of the market exploration are discussed. The full analyses are found in appendix 2 and 4. Based on the results, the next steps for entering another market are determined. After determining the next market for CrossGuard, the branding strategy for the market in question is described in the following chapter. At last, recommendations for the future of CrossGuard are made. 8 2. Project context 2.

  • 2012 Boston Cannons Media Guide
    2012 Media Guide About Major League Lacrosse BACKGROUND: During the summer of 1998, Jake “Body By Jake” Steinfeld was inspired to start a professional outdoor lacrosse league after reading a magazine article about the growth of the sport of lacrosse. Steinfeld sought out a contributor to the article, Owner and President of Warrior Lacrosse Dave Morrow, a leading lacrosse equipment manufacturer, to discuss formation of such a league. In February 1999 Steinfeld and Morrow joined forces with Steinfeld’s friend and business associate Tim Robertson, Chairman of Bay Shore Enterprises and former CEO of the Family Channel, to form Major League Lacrosse, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company. In 2003, New Balance Athletic Shoe Inc. came on board as a Founding Member of Major League Lacrosse, as well as an Anchor Level League Sponsor. Major League Lacrosse began play in 2001 to capitalize on the growing demand for world-class field lacrosse driven by dramatic growth in the U.S. lacrosse market. The MLL was praised and heralded for its on-field play, regarded as the best ever seen. With a year-on-year attendance increase, Major League Lacrosse has continued to lead the sport of lacrosse into the mainstream of competitive team sports. OUR TEAMS: MLL is comprised of eight teams across the US and Canada. The Boston Cannons, Long Island Lizards, and Chesapeake Bayhawks (formerly Baltimore and Washington) have been members of the League since its inception in 2001. The Denver Outlaws began play in 2006 as part of the League’s western expansion. The Hamilton Nationals (formerly Toronto) joined MLL in 2009 as the League’s first international team.
