PHILADELPHIA – Temple University is the latest athletic department to partner with Vivature Sports to apply the fast-growing company's athletics' training software and billing solution to its athletic training operation. Temple joins other prominent schools such as Penn State University and American Athletic Conference member, the University of Houston, as revenue producing partners with Vivature. The five-year agreement will provide new technology, liability and risk mitigation, infrastructure and administrative services to Temple to enhance its sports medicine services for student-athletes.

"The care of our student-athletes is always our number one priority," said Temple University Executive Senior Associate Director of Athletics Mary McElroy. "Our new partnership with Vivature, a leader in athletic training services, allows us to further enhance the excellent care and treatment that we already provide our student-athletes."
Temple owns a rich tradition in intercollegiate athletics, operating from its historic campus in Philadelphia. The Owls recently moved to the AAC with great success, featured by a breakout football season in 2015. Temple has established itself as a leader in the country at combining athletics with an elite academic program focused on preparing students for real world careers, and shaping the business and professional culture of Philadelphia and the surrounding region.
"We are honored and privileged to work with elite leaders such as Temple Director of Athletics Dr. Patrick Kraft, Mary McElroy, and the entire exceptional administrative team at Temple", said Vivature Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Lance Wilson. "Our program is suited for schools with strong leadership who believe strongly that compliance and risk protection are critical components of a successful department, and also that investments in student-athlete care and welfare should be a top priority. We look forward to a long partnership with Temple as they pursue excellence across the board."
Vivature has now partnered with nearly 200 schools across the country on their Healthcare Management Program, including new partnerships with George Washington University, Central Michigan and Northern Illinois, whose established athletic directors Patrick Nero, Dave Heeke and Sean Frazier, respectively, took action to provide a new six-figure revenue stream, risk mitigation, leading technology and athletic training room compliance services to enhance student-athlete care programs for their universities.
