Former NFL quarterback Russell Wilson and singer Ciara have joined wearable health technology company Qalo as partners and investors. Founded in 2013 and known for its silicone rings, the company aims to accelerate its growth in the health monitoring devices sector through this collaboration.

Super Bowl champion Russell Wilson and Grammy-award-winning artist Ciara will work alongside Qalo's leadership team to contribute to the brand's strategic development in health, performance, and technology. The duo aims to increase awareness of the company's new products by leveraging their experience in the sports and entertainment world.
