HACKATHON
Do you have what it takes to work together to solve the problem, and take home the prize money?
This is your chance to take on the challenge, using key data sets to answer a real-world problem.
It’s FREE to participate, simply register as a team (2-4 members) and get involved. Past data sets and themes have included AFL performance data, Cricket World Cup data, and attendee data from the famous Melbourne Cricket Ground.
What do you need to get involved? A team of 2-4 likeminded individuals, a laptop, and an internet connection, that’s it! The Hackathon will kick off on Saturday 14th November, with the winners announced and prize money awarded during this year’s Australia Sports Tech Week (14-20th November).
MASTERCLASS
It’s one thing wanting to take your skills and learning to the next level. It’s another to follow through and actually do it.
That’s why Australian Sports Technologies Network (ASTN) and STWS have combined to bring you a world-class educator each year as part of the ASTN Masterclass.
In 2019, Prof. Jerome Engel from the University of California Berkley, and the Haas School of Business provided a Masterclass on Sports Entrepreneurship and Innovation.
This year’s Masterclass will be hosted VIRTUALLY on Monday 16th November, 2020. Stay tuned for the announcement of our Guest Presenter!
WORKSHOPS
Go deep on the topics that interest you with our FREE Partner Workshops throughout the Australia Sports Tech Week.
In 2019, there were opportunities to explore athlete performance and tracking with Catapult Sports; athlete monitoring and health with VALD Performance; and a deep dive into sports data with Empirics.
Each session will provide you with the opportunity to learn in a smaller VIRTUAL classroom style setting.
Stay tuned for the announcement of this year’s workshops!

SPORTS TECH WEEK FAQ
A must attend industry festival of events for those working, or interesting in the intersection of sports and technology. The week of events includes a series of free activities, that culminates with an industry wide major conference on Friday 20th November, 2020.
2020 has been a challenging year for all of us, and we wanted to create an event that could still bring the community together to connect, learn, and get excited for the future. In order to make sure this event is able to run, and is safe for all those who attend we have made it a fully virtual event. Don’t worry though, our virtual platform means that you will still be able to network and learn throughout the week.
We have created a truly interactive week, and there are opportunities to get involved no matter what your budget is.
It’s FREE to participate in the Hackathon, Masterclass, and Partner Workshops throughout the week.
If you want to be a part of the industry conference you can purchase a content only ticket for as little as XXX, or upgrade for an extra XXX to a full access networking ticket in order to enjoy the round tables, breakout rooms, networking, and more!
Our Virtual Conference Platform is a fully immersive environment that you can navigate throughout the Conference. Imagine walking into a Conference Hall Lobby and having the full Conference at your fingertips; you could wander over to the Exhibit Hall to check out the product demos, or ask questions about the latest innovations on display; drop into one of the breakout rooms to get involved in the discussion; or enter one of the main halls to watch the keynotes sessions, or industry panels; the choice is yours!
