Technogym: The Wellness Company
NEW YORK, N.Y. – Technogym announced the amazing results of its 2019 Let’s Move for a Better World campaign, a worldwide social initiative to raise awareness in the fight against obesity and sedentariness, that ran its sixth edition from March 11 – 30, 2019. Let’s Move for a Better World is the biggest social campaign in the fitness and wellness industry that embodies Technogym’s mission to improve wellness on a global scale.
Thanks to Technogym’s ecosystem and Mywellness, gym members in fitness facilities around the world joined forces to donate their movement and promote wellness and healthy lifestyles in their local community and beyond. The more active the users were, the bigger the donation to the communities.
Participants’ MOVEs, Technogym’s unit for measuring movement, were logged through Technogym’s Mywellness cloud – the first open platform in the industry, connecting people and fitness facilities all over the world. Thanks to the Technogym Ecosystem, a unique solution that includes connected equipment and Mywellness cloud – users can enjoy a fully personalized wellness experience, and facilities can create challenges amongst their members or with other clubs.
