PROBLEM:
1. Most athletes require seed funding that will provide them with the
resources to train and compete for professional baseball contracts.
2. Players need bridge loans that carry them over between the time
they sign a contract, and the time they receive their first payments
(3-8 months)
3. Few players have Agent representation in the US, ready, until they
are signed as professionals.
5. 5
SOLUTION:
1. GALLANT will gather data analytics for the purpose of investments
into young athletes who are yet not signed and collect a % of their
future contract.
2. GALLANT will provide short term bridge loans for players who have
recently signed contracts (3-8 months).
3. GALLANT will aim to provide athlete representation in the US for
these athletes, for the lifetime of their career.

Informatics
Sabermetrics or SABRmetrics is the empirical analysis
of baseball, especially baseball statistics that measure
in-game activity.
Sabermetricians collect and summarize the relevant
data from this in-game activity to answer specific
questions. GALLANT is positioned perfectly, to capture
large amounts of this structured data, in real-time,
accurately and precisely for analysis.
7. 7
Objective
GALLANT aims to provide the funding necessary for Young
athletes to make it to the major professional Baseball teams,
by investing in the future of SPECIFIC athletes, who show
the highest potential of success but to also provide short term
services to athletes in need of bridge loans.
