How We Got Here. 2014 - 2023
Founding Vision
Bubbleball Inc. is founded by Mahdad Taheri leading up to 2014 FIFA World Cup to capitalize on media attention and early equipment distribution of bubbleballs around the world.
User generated videos produce tens of millions of impressions and sales of product validate interest in the activity. 
Founding Team
Taheri puts the bubbleball idea into Blue Sky Labs, his innovation lab within his New York design agency, TVI.
The young team hustles to satisfy demand, rapidly prototype and set the long term vision. While overseeing client projects Bubbleball Inc. is spun off on April 15, 2014.
Thesis Studies
Taheri's Master's dissertation at NYU, "Critical Success Factors for Creating the Next Major American League Sport", shapes the company's long term roadmap as it attempts to evolve a nascent kids game into an athletic sport.
Equipment Distribution
The company focuses on equipment distribution via sales, rentals and 65 licensed operators around the country as it continues research and development of the sports idea.
BubbleBall rebrands to the BBA
The Bubbleball Business Association continues to focus on safety, long term vision and diligent operations to ensure rental operations, camps, schools and universities around the country operate safely.
BBA bubbleball differentiates from early game play. "Shoot for the moon. Land on the stars. Play to create." becomes the company's aspirational vision, embedded in its game rules and BBA logo.
Game Rules Development
Game mechanics of other sports are broken down and BBA bubbleball is designed ground up. New York weather prevents play testing and development, spurring the move of the company to California.
San Diego Tournaments
Early tournaments across San Diego test rules and adoption by novice players. DICK'S sporting goods joins as a first sponsor along with FITAID beverages and Made in Nature snacks.
Advisory Board Appointments
Seasoned advisors join our board to support our early stage development.
COVID
Shut downs of parks and facilities flattens the company's revenue streams and eliminates the team. Operators around the country close doors to not incur insurance costs, creating new opportunities for entrepreneurs in local markets.
