TORONTO — Henoc Muamba didn't have much use for his degree in information systems over the course of his 12-year CFL career.Muamba was a speaker at Toronto's Collision tech conference last month, an annual networking event that will be moving to Vancouver next year. He said that his passion for innovative businesses never left him, he just had to shelve it while playing professional football.

He went on to play one season for the NFL's Indianapolis Colts before returning to the CFL with the Montreal Alouettes , Saskatchewan Roughriders , Montreal again and the Toronto Argonauts . "It's just been really learning on the go, learning through experience," said Muamba, who is on the board of directors for BILI, a social commerce platform that connects brands with social media creators."A lot of it has been learning on the fly and leveraging my years in football and my network really to continue to help the business."Muamba is not the only pro football player exploring the tech space.

"I can see as an investor how you could actually be excited to invest in AI but also at the same time, very, extremely hesitant because I'm hearing the same type of concept over and over, like, well, how is yours different?"
