The Future of Sports Tech
As Brisbane gears up for the 2032 Summer Olympics, ICB is excited to also innovate in the sports tech sector. We are collaborating with Cisco to transform the way sports are played, watched, and experienced. We are also exploring innovations in logistics and transport to ensure smooth and efficient movement of athletes, staff, and equipment during the games.
Drawing on expertise in sports leadership, data analytics and AI, sports science, high performance, elite athletes and sports management, QUT is building a world-class and well-resourced sports tech innovation precinct, with dedicated innovation activity being delivered in partnership with industry, government and big tech in Innovation Central Brisbane.
