Horcery and the National HBPA: A Partnership for the Future of Horse Racing
The National Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association (HBPA) kicked off its highly anticipated four-day national conference on February 24, and Horcery is proud to be here as a corporate sponsor, standing alongside the largest horsemen’s association in North America. This event isn’t just a gathering—it’s a chance for the industry’s most influential voices to come together and shape the future of horse racing.
From the opening remarks by HBPA President Dr. Doug Daniels to the powerful discussions led by representatives from the Horse Racing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA), the Horseracing Integrity and Welfare Unit (HIWU), and the Racing and Safety Authority (RHSA), the conference agenda is packed with vital conversations. Topics like workforce challenges, immigration issues, and the evolving role of technology in horse care are front and center, making this event a hub for innovation and progress.
For Horcery, this conference is about more than just presence—it’s about partnership. Our mission to revolutionize equine welfare aligns perfectly with the HBPA’s dedication to protecting horsemen’s interests and ensuring the highest standards of care and integrity. Our flagship product, the AI Stall Monitor, was developed through years of research and collaboration with industry leaders. This cutting-edge technology provides real-time monitoring, detects early signs of distress or illness, and offers the documentation trainers and owners need for accountability and safety.
“Our most valuable resource is our horses, and Horcery’s AI Stall Monitor provides horsemen and horsewomen with transformative technology to provide a nonstop eye on their precious racehorses - accessible 24/7 via cell phone. The National HBPA values all our corporate sponsors, and we welcome Horcery, not just for its innovation but its enthusiasm for racehorses and horse racing,” said Eric Hamelback, CEO National HBPA.
A highlight of the week comes on Wednesday, February 26, when our own Jeff DeAngelis takes the stage for his keynote presentation, "Helping Horsemen through Today’s Technology." Jeff will explore how advanced tools like the AI Stall Monitor are transforming stable management and equine safety. Sponsored by SIS, Equibase, and the Racetrack Television Network, this session promises to be one of the most forward-thinking discussions of the conference.
"At Horcery, we are dedicated to developing technology that directly benefits the horsemen and the horses they care for," said Matti Hiob, CEO of Horcery. "The AI Stall Monitor was created exclusively for this industry—there’s nothing else like it. Partnering with the National HBPA allows us to expand our mission of improving equine welfare, stable security, and operational efficiency."
The HBPA’s members, who are on-site at tracks throughout North America, are the heartbeat of this sport. Their dedication to advocating for horsemen and ensuring the highest standards of safety and integrity drives our commitment to providing them with the best possible tools. Through this partnership, we’re not just introducing new technology—we’re working to shape the future of horse care and industry advocacy.
