Conversations will touch on a wide range of areas of sports technology, including performance improvement, injury prevention and recovery/return to play, fan engagement, event operations and athlete second careers. We will discuss the realities of building and fundraising for SportsTech products, and how technology is being used to engage communities and transform major sporting events and programmes. We will have a chance to discuss the relationship between sport and other sectors, including: wellbeing, content creation, events promotion, and careers and what this might mean for Scotland's position on the global stage.
Ever felt like your best business idea is just a walk in the park away? Join Katie Paterson, communications whiz and founder of The Outsiders, for a workshop that helps you think about business beyond the boardroom. Discover why walks in nature have fueled history’s most legendary innovators, and how you can use the same principles to spark creativity, foster real connection and boost your well-being. Walk away with simple, fun hacks to weave the outdoors into your workday, and a fresh perspective on making nature your most powerful business tool.
Step into our Innovator Showcase and meet four pioneering startups, Coach Logic, Find a Player, MotionLab Ventures, and Scotia Biotech. Discover how their bold ideas and cutting-edge technology are transforming coaching, connecting athletes, and helping teams perform at their best, all in one inspiring space.
Step into a space where every conversation has the potential to spark something new. Enjoy refreshments and a lively, welcoming atmosphere designed to bring people together whether you’re exchanging ideas or discovering new collaborators. It’s the perfect moment to unwind, connect, and let serendipity shape your evening.
Drop in for a short mini-golf challenge running throughout the event. Step away from the talks, test your skills, and connect with others through play!
Chris Dean shares his journey from professional rugby with Scotland Sevens and Edinburgh Rugby to a successful career in wealth management. Discover how the discipline, resilience, and mindset of elite sport can drive business success, with practical insights on leadership, relationship-building, and personal growth that you can apply in your own career.
Kicking off our talks, Professor Ross Tuffee, Co-Founder of MotionLab Ventures, will set the stage for the evening by highlighting the trends, opportunities, and challenges shaping the world of SportsTech.
Join Toni Blackhurst, Commercial Director at Recast, and Alasdair Crawley, Co-founder and CEO of Fanbase, as they explore how sport is driving innovation far beyond performance and stats. Using fan engagement as an example we will discuss how sport acts as a lever or entry point into other sectors, including health, content, and venue operations. Toni and Alasdair will join our host, Ross Tuffee, and share the challenges and insights shaping the next decade and spark fresh ideas for founders, investors, and fans alike.
Allison will lead a breathwork and movement session designed specifically for founders to release tension and stress from the body, calm the mind, and soothe the nervous system. This short, accessible session combines guided breathwork with targeted movements to improve mobility and ease physical and mental tension. You’ll leave feeling relaxed yet energised, grounded yet focused—ready to approach the rest of your day with greater clarity, balance, and resilience.
Join us for an inspiring conversation with Jodie Sinclair, Founder and CEO of TheoHealth, Gavin Dear, Chief Commercial Officer of ShotScope, and Roy Hotrabhvanon, Chief Executive Officer of PlayerData, as they share their journeys and insights on building SportsTech businesses from Scotland.
