The Sports Analytics Innovation Summit, Melbourne 2016

The Sports Analytics Innovation Summit will be held this week on Tuesday 23 and Wednesday 24 February at the Park Hyatt in Melbourne.

"Push the Boundaries with Data" 

"Push the Boundaries with Data" is the theme of the Summit, which will see leading experts and senior sports professionals come together to showcase current trends and best practices in sport-oriented analytics and data. 

The challenge for sports experts today is not so much on obtaining the data but rather on discovering innovative ways to use and apply analytics to data to better inform decisions and enhance sports performance on the world stage.
