This past weekend, our team had the incredible opportunity to attend the Budapest Épée Grand Prix, one of the most prestigious events on the international fencing calendar. Surrounded by some of the world’s top athletes, coaches, and fencing enthusiasts, we showcased the Calibur wireless scoring system and connected with the community we’re proud to serve.
Bringing Calibur to the Strip
We set up a test piste right next to the action, giving fencers, coaches, and referees the chance to experience Calibur firsthand. Throughout the weekend, we ran live demonstrations, walking visitors through the features of our system and answering tons of great questions.
National team athletes, club fencers, and referees all stepped in to test Calibur—and the reactions were overwhelmingly positive. Many were impressed by the system’s wireless flexibility, easy setup, and low-latency hit detection. The integration with our mobile app also caught attention, especially among coaches looking for smart tools to enhance training.
Connecting with Fencing Professionals
Beyond the test piste, the event was a great networking opportunity. We met fencing club owners, national federation representatives, and potential distributors—all curious to learn more about what Calibur can offer. These new connections open exciting possibilities for future collaborations and pilot programs.
What’s Next?
Walking away from the Grand Prix, we’re more motivated than ever. Events like this remind us why we started building Calibur in the first place: to create a modern, flexible, and accessible scoring system that grows with the sport.
We’ll be working closely with some of the clubs and athletes we met, continuing to test, refine, and expand Calibur’s capabilities. Stay tuned—this is just the beginning.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by, tried the system, and shared their thoughts. We’ll see you at the next competition!
