Alpha Hub
Flutter and Beyond Sport launch global Tech4Good Awards to transform lives through the power of sport and technology

Reading Time: 1 minute
Flutter Entertainment, in collaboration with Alpha Hub and Beyond Sport, has launched the Flutter Tech4Good Awards 2025 – a global initiative looking to uncover and accelerate bold, technology-driven solutions that harness the power of sport and physical activity to build healthier, more active communities.
Despite the well-documented benefits of physical activity, 31% of adults globally are not meeting recommended activity levels. This inactivity contributes to declining physical and mental health across populations.
The Awards will support bold, tech-driven innovations that go beyond addressing physical inactivity — they’ll push the boundaries of what’s possible for healthier, more connected communities. Whether it’s grassroots initiatives or scalable digital platforms, Flutter and Beyond Sport are seeking five standout organizations using technology to inspire movement, improve public health, and advance community wellbeing.
Kerry McNally, Head of Communities & Engagement at Flutter said: “The Flutter Tech4Good Awards reflect our commitment to using technology as a force for good, in line with the ambitions of our Positive Impact Plan. By backing innovative, tech-driven solutions, we aim to inspire healthier, more active communities and address the growing challenges of physical inactivity. Leveraging the Flutter Edge, we’re proud to support organizations that are using technology to deliver meaningful, long-term impact on health and wellbeing.”
The Awards will offer a total of £60,000 in funding, alongside a bespoke support program to maximize long-term impact and growth. The Awards are open to organizations around the world that are leveraging any sport or physical activity to drive health outcomes through technology-based innovation. Eligible applicants may include nonprofits, startups, social enterprises, or other mission-driven entities with a focus on public health and physical activity.
Applications for the Flutter Tech4Good Awards 2025 are open from Monday 6th October 2025 until Friday 31st October 2025, with the winners announced in January 2026. For more information on how to apply, visit https://beyondsport.org/awards/flutter-tech4good-awards-2025/criteria/.
