Committee

To ensure that the best projects are selected for presentations at the conference, we have two separate committees.

The Scientific Committee reviews the submitted abstracts for the academic track. We strongly encourage junior researchers to submit their abstracts.


The Expert Committee reviews submitted data journalism projects. We have included experts from media research, data scientists, and data journalists to ensure that the best projects are presented at the conference.

Center for Research in Sports Administration

The Center for Research in Sports Administration (CRSA) is a scientific network with the goal to support and coordinate high level academic research in sports management, sports economics, sports administration, and adjacent areas at the University of Zurich.


Our network fosters top level academic research, coordinates scientific collaboration between researchers at the University of Zurich, researchers at other universities and institutions as well as important sports institutions in Switzerland and abroad. We promote junior researchers, organize conferences and seminars, and facilitate knowledge transfer between science and practice.
