Technology Is Changing The Face Of Soccer—And Why Tech Leaders Should Be Paying Attention

Sal Paju , president and CTO of Naztec International Group, is a technology leader with over 35 years of experience and 19 patents.

The 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar is truly an international event that has broken the hearts of many. For four exciting weeks, spectators from all over the world will gather to cheer on their national teams. But one thing - the thing this whole show hinged on - didn't live up to the hype it deserved - mediocre football.

Surprisingly, most people don't seem too interested in the spherical objects around which the entire game is built. In fact, the modern soccer ball is more than a few pieces of air-filled polyurethane; This Qatar 2022 'flying' football, which was unveiled during the FIFA World Cup, is a great example of modern technology.

I was fascinated by the application of this technology perhaps playing barefoot football in a small village in India where I come from. After years and countless struggles, I lead an innovation team in a company that specializes in the development of new technologies with artificial intelligence, robotics and drone technology. Not only as a long-time football fan, but also as a CTO of a technology company, I believe that these new developments have applications in many fields. In my opinion, every entrepreneur or business leader can learn important lessons from the latest trends, especially when it comes to thinking outside the box and always striving to improve, whether on the football field or elsewhere.
