  • Keep on moving with Amanda Nguyen Co-Founder of Boardball

    Today's conversation started years before boardball was even though of. Amanada tells us an awe inspiring story about her dad that stuck with her and helped kickstarted her entrepreneurial journey.

    Amanda Nguyen is the Co-Founder of Boardball. A new sport that makes volleyball more accessible so that you can play anytime and anywhere. Amanda is also a Managing Director of a digital making agency that support startup growth and scaleup. She enjoys figuring out how to make technology work best for each unique situation

    Boardball is a new sport that lowers the barriers to playing volleyball by reducing the extensive setup required so that you can play anytime and anywhere. Instead of needing a traditional court, volleyball net, and large group of people, all that is needed to play Boardball is a board, a volleyball, and 4 people. The game is played two against two, and you can move anywhere around the board without losing that bump, set, spike that you love. No more searching for courts or setting up bulky nets, with boardball you can use your bump-set-spike skills wherever you go.
