The rate of technological advancement in sport is unprecedented. From data analytics to robotic umpiring to smart equipment, technologies are reshaping what it means to achieve and compete. Even the International Olympic Committee has now developed an AI strategy.

It's also big business with the sport industry conservatively estimated at around one per cent of global GDP.

Guests

Professor Sascha Schmidt – Director of the Centre for Sports and Management, WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management

Louis Weston – Barrister and sports lawyer, Outer Temple Chambers, London

Dr John Holash – Assistant Professor, Faculty of Kinesiology, The University of Calgary
