The representatives from European Olympic Committees (NOCs) and their dedicated Sustainability Single Points of Contact (SPOCs) met at the 44th European Olympic Committees (EOC) Seminar in Budva, Montenegro on 27 and 28 September. The first workshop focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI), offering NOCs the chance to engage with experts on AI’s expanding role in sports, from supporting athletes to promoting clean competitions and optimising performance.
