Spodia Contracts Digital Operations Solution with Judo Association
Building Integrated Management System such as Short Certificates, Certificates, and Certificates
Sports IT startup Spodia will sign a contract with the Korea Judo Association to supply and operate digital operation solutions and promote digital transformation (DX) of the judo administration system.
The two companies signed a contract on the 11th with officials including Cho Yong-chul, chairman of Korea Judo, and Kim Jong-min, CEO of Spodia. Through this project, the single certificates, certificates, and certificates issued by the Korea Judo Association will be integrated and managed in a single operating environment and linked to the PLAYV app to build a system that allows individuals to check and utilize their history.
Certificates, qualifications, and educational history are the main criteria for confirming the activity qualifications and expertise of the inductor. Although it is repeatedly used in the field, such as participation in competitions, confirmation of qualifications for leaders and referees, and proof of educational history, if related information is distributed in documents or individual systems, the management burden of the association increases, and it is difficult for individuals to immediately use their history when necessary.
PLAYV HUB, a digital operations solution for stock groups, provides an operational foundation to improve these issues. The Korea Judo Association can manage membership status and issuance history on a consistent basis, and users can check their proof information and activity details on the Play app. In the future, functions for competitions and events organized by the association, promotion and promotion screening, and application and payment for conservative education will be added.
Spodia said, “This contract is also meaningful in that it will lay the foundation for sports MyData services that link official data of sports organizations on an individual basis. “The key is to create a structure in which sportsmen can continuously manage and utilize their history by linking the official information held by the association with the history of individual activities,” he explained.
Earlier in March, Spodia signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Korea Sports Association’s Federation of Sports Organizations. Through this, 82 sports organizations under the Sports Association decided to cooperate to advance digital infrastructure and automate administration. Currently, the Korea Wushu Association and the Korea Pro Bowling Association have completed the introduction of the system, and the Korea Boxing Association, the Korea Modern Pentathlon Federation, and the Korea I-Park Golf Association are under construction. In addition, it has signed MOUs with the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Sports Association, the Korea Table Tennis Association, the Korea Squash Federation, and the Korea Secondhand Fencing Federation to expand cooperation in the field of sports for all.
“This contract is the starting point for reducing the administrative burden of the Korea Judo Association and linking official data to sports history that can be used by individuals,” said Kim Jong-min, CEO of Spodia. “We will contribute to improving public health by increasing the athletic immersion and participation rate of sportsmen through sports MyData service.”
