  • A Name Change, A Game Change
    When Khalil Zahar and Tommy Duquette first pitched their boxing workout startup, Hykso, the investors saw a big opportunity. They wanted to know: Could Hykso be more like Peloton, an at-home cycling system that was starting to take off? Three years later, the company is trying to do just that — and it’s been a wild ride. 
    Today’s investors are Jillian Manus, Phil Nadel, Howie Diamond and Jake Chapman.
