A weekend long event, taking place on the 8th-10th April, where groups of aspiring sports professionals come together and bring their ideas to life. They will be making change to sustainability in sport become a reality by creating new solutions, products or businesses. International teams compete to solve a challenge facing the sports industry: driving sustainability.
Students will receive mentorship from some of the leading innovators in the sports industry.
The Hackathon will take place on our event platform Livestorm. You will receive more information, including your unique access link in a separate email.
Prior to the event you will be assigned a team by your university, you will work together across the weekend on a project collating your results in a final presentation. One person from your team must submit your final presentation deck via the link that will be shared with you in a separate email. The deadline to do this is Sunday 10 April, at 11:30 EST/16:30 BST.
We will reveal the criteria that the judges will be grading each presentation on the first day of the event.
The ultimate object of the Hackathon is to give students the platform to elevate their voice and ideas to position them as the innovators they are, whilst simultaneously providing them with vital industry exposure. For these reasons, SportsPro will prepare a feature editorial piece in the aftermath of the event, detailing the work of the top three teams.
The competition’s winner will take this one step further, presenting their work at SportsPro’s flagship summit in April, SportsPro Live, where they will feature on the main agenda as keynote speakers.
