ACCESS: The Sports IDEAS Symposium provides a platform for sports analysts to gain exposure to new information, new methods of evaluation, and to one another. IDEAS focuses on the next generation through conversations about the best ways to look at data, problems, and best practices in and across sports.

PRACTICE: The Sports IDEAS Symposium provides a look inside sport to better understand the analytics community while encompassing historical, current, and future issues. IDEAS is not just focused on theory, but also on the translation and implementation of analytical tools and thought processes.
