Binovi Technologies Corp (CVE:VISN) (OTC:BNVIF) announced Thursday that three-time Olympic ice hockey gold medalist and five-time IHF World Champion Jennifer Botterill has joined the company as a brand ambassador and a member of the Binovi performance advisory board.

"I am honoured to be a part of the Binovi team,” Botterill said. “It will be a privilege to collaborate with Binovi to help others achieve the highest level of success that is possible, and I recognize the importance of vision in our lives and in sport performance. I look forward to working closely with Binovi's cutting edge research and technology to give athletes and individual users the edge to perform at their very best." 

Today, Botterill is a keynote speaker, performance coach, consultant, brand ambassador and a television broadcaster. She is an analyst for the NHL's New York Islanders with MSG Networks.
