+++ Wednesday, 2:26 p.m. +++ Edith Waltner, Rathgeber: "Digitization opens up completely new business fields for us - especially in the sports sector.

Maximilian Jagsch, Swox: "Influencer marketing will change dramatically – at the moment a lot seems arbitrary and interchangeable. This won't work in the long run."

Marlene Vey, Snowplaza: Reach and followers are one thing, quality is often the other. Good content and credibility will certainly become more important again in the future.

+++ Wednesday, 11:54 a.m. +++ Prof. Yannis Pitsiladis, founder of SUB2HRS, promises a performance boost through digitization: "Thanks to the progressing digitalisation, it is only a matter of time until the two-hour mark at the marathon will fall. Above all, however, it is a question of the right information. SUB2HRS will not replace good coaches. But the trial and error approach is outdated. We provide trainers and athletes in real time with all the data they need for training, racing and regeneration. More importantly, our record will be clean, transparent and doping free."
