Sports Technology and Applied Research Symposium
22-24 October 2025
Each year the Australian Sports Commission hosts the Sports Technology and Applied Research Symposium (STARS) brings together sport and exercise researchers, technologists and sport industry professionals from across Australia and the world to share ideas that can drive innovation in their fields.
In 2025, STARS was wholly online via Microsoft Teams, with 12 sessions spread across three days. The online event was free to attend for those in the sports sector and our industry and university partners.
