Cliff Rowley, UpTempo Sports | From the New York Yankees to building an innovative technology company

Cliff has always loved sports. He first wanted to become a professional athlete. When he realized that wasn’t in the cards, he entered the business side of sports, enjoying roles with the New York Yankees and an NCAA program at Monmouth College. He always cared deeply about the athletes he worked with - on and off the field. 

Like in other businesses, sometimes the business of sports forgets about the people. It’s Cliff’s love of the athletes that led him to see a gap in the market: there was no sport-specific transdermal patch. They call it the hydra patch because it efficiently hydrates wearers. Water brings life, and we can’t wait to see this human-centric leader build this awesome new product and get it to teams all over the world.

“We’re creating a transdermal patch (the hydra patch) that delivers hydration directly to the bloodstream, where it is most effective.“
