WTF! Sounds like something from another planet to me:
https://www.stevenagefc.com/news/2025/october/23/stevenage-fc-launches-accelerator-for-football-s-boldest-founders/
Does anybody have any clue what this is about?
I assume it’s something to do with Xsolla.

We have a "Head of Growth & Innovation"?
I suppose Keith's job title has now changed to Vice President of Hygiene and Cleanliness Compliance?

I think it just means any new businesses with new products or ideas relating to the football industry will have an opportunity to test their product in a real life setting with the club.
Why they had to use so much jargon waffle buzz words to complicate the message I don't know.
Hopefully the information they provide to the people it's targeted at make it a lot easier to understand what it is we are offering and how they participate.

It's football, Jim, but not as we know it.
The corporatisation of everything is one of the reasons people are so disillusioned with the world...

It's possibly the perfect example of 2025 corporate speak. It should be hung in a museum for future generations to gawp at.
I'm not sure it's necessarily AI generated as I'm pretty sure that's how any intern with a marketing degree would write.

My own career was full of people talking like this in meetings to impress.
I hate that I probably used some of those words and phrases before I noticed people's eyes saying "what the fuck is he on about?" and switched to talking normal plain English.

Its the new generation of AI football robots to replace any of our inconsistent players...I think thats what it means.
Edit:- Its a string of words strung together creating...a string of words that make no sense....very poor.

Yes, like it or not, the future and presumably the Club should benefit in some way, financially.
A pity that the shot in the link of the football ground and two of our players isn't the Lamex but Huddersfield I think
