Programme
Two days of
pure innovation
Twenty-one sessions across two rooms, from pitch construction and turfgrass science to sensors, robotics and stadium data — plus the exhibition, the dinner and the raffle draw on the pitch. Talks run 30 minutes with a five-minute changeover, so you can switch rooms between sessions.
