This week on Saturday Success Stories with Joe Vagnone on LKN Connect, Joe sits down with inventor, entrepreneur, and technology innovator Shawn Moye. As the Founder and President of The Moye Group, Shawn has spent nearly two decades building expertise in operations management, product development, and innovation. His entrepreneurial journey began at just sixteen years old when he developed his first invention and taught himself the patent process, laying the foundation for what would become a career dedicated to solving real-world problems through technology.
Shawn is best known as the creator of the patented E-Sports Trainer, now evolving into the Smart Sports Trainer, a wearable sports technology platform designed to help athletes develop muscle memory, improve mechanics, and receive real-time performance feedback. Inspired by his desire to help his son train more consistently and affordably, Shawn created a solution that combines advanced motion tracking, analytics, and coaching feedback to make high-quality sports training accessible to athletes of all levels. His invention has been featured on national television, entrepreneurial podcasts, innovation conferences, and industry publications, earning recognition for its unique approach to athletic development.
Today, Shawn continues to expand the reach of his technology through AI-powered sports training solutions and ongoing product innovation. Through The Moye Group and PracticeSmarter.ai, he works to empower athletes, inventors, and entrepreneurs by combining technology, mentorship, and practical business experience. His vision extends beyond basketball, with plans to bring adaptive training technology to multiple sports while helping users train smarter, build confidence, and achieve measurable results. Shawn’s mission remains clear: create tools that make elite-level training more accessible and help individuals unlock their full potential.
