BARCELONA, SPAIN10 November 2025 – The Barça Innovation Hub (BIHUB), FC Barcelona’s center for knowledge and innovation, and Omniscope, the pioneering immune intelligence platform, today announced their joint participation and presentation at major international technology and innovation events, including Web Summit and MWC Doha.

The partnership, which leverages Omniscope's cutting-edge AI and high-resolution immune profilingto enhance athlete health and performance, will showcase how data-driven insights are redefining the limits of the human body, transforming elite sports science into precision medicine.


Stronger for Longer: The Era of Immune Intelligence in Sport


The joint sessions, titled "Stronger for Longer: Harnessing Immune Intelligence in Sport" will feature Albert Mundet, CEO of the Barça Innovation Hub, and Vijay Vaswani, CEO of Omniscope. They will explore how the decoding of the immune system is creating a new paradigm for elite athletics, where age, recovery, and performance are no longer fixed limits.

Using data derived from the world’s largest immune database, Omniscope’s platform tracks the immune system across an athlete’s lifespan. This enables the early and precise detection of inflammation, fatigue, and recovery imbalances — key biological drivers that lead to performance decline and injury.

“Sports is about humans pushing boundaries, and to do that safely and effectively, we mustunderstand the body at its most fundamental level: the immune system,” said Albert Mundet. “Through Omniscope’s single-cell sequencing technology, we gain an unprecedented view of each athlete’simmune landscape. This unique depth of data allows our medical teams to move from reactive to truly predictive and personalized performance strategies. It’s a transformative step in the science of human performance.”


Key Takeaways from Joint Presentations:

  • Precision Performance Optimization: Attendees will discover how Omniscope’s technology provides personalized immune data, allowing tailored interventions that enhance performance, resilience, and recovery for each athlete.
  • Predictive Health Analytics: Learn about the AI-driven models that identify subtle immune shifts—such as a rising Inflammation Score or accelerated Immune Age—that signal potentialrisks of illness, overtraining, or injury before clinical symptoms appear.
  • AI-Guided Longevity Strategies: The session will detail how this immune intelligence isused to optimize training load, recovery protocols, and nutrition, effectively enabling athletes to maintain peak fitness and career longevity—to truly stay Stronger for Longer.


"The elite athlete serves as a perfect model for peak human health
," stated Vijay Vaswani. "By applying our AI-powered immune intelligence platform to FC Barcelona's world-class medical data, we are not only maximizing performance on the pitch but also democratizing high-resolution immune insights for health and longevity beyond sports. These major events are the ideal stage to share these breakthroughs."
