Episode 12 - Mymo - Craig Downs

Welcome the “On Your Marks Podcast" with @MattWoodyWood from GWActive.com.

This is the podcast where we chat to the founders, leaders and innovators behind the brands that inspire you to get on your starting blocks. 

The world of sport is competitive by nature, and the business that underpins it, often has an interesting story behind it and with this podcast we aim to gain an insight into those that drive it forward. 

On this episode of the 'On Your Marks' podcast I chat to Craig Downs the Founder and CEO of Mymo Group.

Mymo is the accumulation of years of research, which resulted a wearable tech device. The device measures a runners' gait and uses artificial intelligence to match running styles to all the latest shoes on the market. 

Craig is an experienced marketer and also runs another business, Up North Communications. 

This conversation will be interesting to anyone keen to hear the insights of someone who has not only worked in the service industry, but has put the research and ground work needed to create a tech product. 

We started the conversation by asking Craig about his younger years.
