Guest

Dr. Kurt Schütte, PhD in biomechanics, CEO, and co-founder of Runeasi — a company that’s shaking up how we assess running and jumping in both clinical and athletic settings.

After completing his PhD, Kurt saw a gap between the lab and the field — and a clear need for affordable, evidence-based biomechanics analysis that could be used in the real world. That realization became Runeasi. His mission? To empower clinicians and coaches to use data-driven insights to reduce injury risk and enhance performance — and to make this the standard within the next three years.
