A European alliance connecting research, strategic foresight and education for AI in sport. Coordinated by Collective Innovation AS under Erasmus+. See more at https://sf4sport.com/
What will artificial intelligence require of people working in sport over the next five to ten years? Which opportunities should education prepare them for, and which challenges need attention now?
SF4Sport brings these questions to clubs and federations, technology businesses, educators and policy stakeholders. Their experience informs a structured foresight exercise across performance, fan engagement and sport management.
The project connects that evidence with future scenarios, cluster roadmaps and practical education. The aim is to help students and professionals develop the capabilities needed for a changing sport sector.
