Computers and Electronics Manufacturing

Optimizing human performance in sports and life.

About us

In 1977, we changed the future of sports, health, and fitness. Before: athletes would be hooked up to a machine on a treadmill in a lab to track the beats of their heart. After: anyone, anywhere, anytime could capture, translate, understand, and trust the data from their bodies to optimize their performance in sports and life. For almost 5 decades, we’ve been uncovering the secrets to longer, healthier, happier lives – and putting our technology into consumer wearables, software, and services. In 2023, for the first time, we extended that offer to other brands and industry partners in the hope of accelerating our goal: Life Optimized. Want to hear more?

    The G.O.A.T? 🐐 Introducing the 1st edition of the brand-new Polar Journal. It’s not a new product. It’s not a new feature. But it is a new way for us to entertain you.   When you’ve been doing what we do for as long as we have, you have a lot to say about a lot of things.   Polar Journal is a way for us as a brand to say those things, delighting our customers, and bringing us closer to them. But even if you’re not a Polar customer, we think you’ll enjoy getting lost in the stories, learning about the science, and gaining some insights from alternative perspectives. It’s well-written. It’s immersive. It’s real. And it’s out now. Read it here: ⬇️ Polar Journal: The Ultrarunning Issue 🏃 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gfkzrSWM Then come back and let us know what you think in the comments. Enjoy!   P.S. The goat is called Billy, and was pictured by Herman Desmet whilst out and about wearing a Polar Grit X2 Pro. #Polar #Ultrarunning #Journal

    Head of Brand & Strategy @ Polar Electro® // Founder of Brand Noob.®

    ME: 'I work for Polar Electro Oy.' THEM: 'Who?' 🤨 This is a conversation I have at least once a week. And I say (and do) the same thing every time: 'They make sports watches and heart rate monitors?' (I show them my watch & mime a strap on my chest) *honestly, it's like a crap game of charades. 'Ahhh, yeeeah…okay! I think I know them!' 😳 They don’t! 😒 And even if they do, that’s all they know. It’s a damn shame. Because there’s so much more to it. For example, they don’t know that Polar… …is from Finland. …was founded in 1977. …is STILL privately-owned. …has its own Research Center. …has almost 600 registered patents. …also makes B2B products and services. …has millions of monthly users on its app. …licenses its algorithms to other tech brands. …won two awards for product design this year. …has the most published studies in the industry. …is (probably) THE brand to watch in wearables. They just don’t know these things yet! But they will (soon) Because… 'I work for Polar Electro Oy.' 😎 P.S. The image below is from the Polar archives (1970's). Yes, that's a Lada! And yes, that's the first wireless heart rate tracker in the world. --- EDIT --- The man running next to the Lada is 4x Olympic Gold Medalist, Lasse Virén 🇫🇮 #FlyingFinns
