About
Based in New York, US, and founded in 2019 Nextiles, Inc. operates as a provider of a smart garment platform that combines athletic clothing with an analytics engine that uncovers fresh information about a person's movement. In May 2026, Betterguards Technology, a portfolio company of Brandenburg Kapital and Die Bruckenkopfe, acquired Nextiles, Inc. from Alumni Ventures Group, Drive by DraftKings, 77, and Phoenix Capital Ventures.
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. Nextiles, Inc. provides wearables attached with motion sensors directly into clothes using stitching techniques, allowing businesses to utilize the knowledge to help construct or supplement goods from firms wanting to develop IoT or smart devices. The company offers customized APIs with sewn fabrics and data capture products and also allows users to store data and manufacture different fashion clothes.
The acquisition enables Betterguards to add Nextiles’ smart fabric technology and motion‑data IP to improve how it studies and understands injury occurrences and protection events in ankle injury prevention.
