GENEXSIS is the annual summit of the Georgia Sports Innovation Coalition - the one date on the calendar where athletes, founders, investors, universities, teams, brands and state government stop working in parallel and work in the same room. Two days of programming built around what Georgia is actually shipping: athlete identity, wellness, fan engagement, and AI.
An industry and capital event, produced with SEI-Con, hosted inside Georgia Tech's applied research arm. Year one sold out in a single room. Year two takes two days.
A full house of athletes, universities, leagues, AI companies and government. Five panels, student research from Georgia Tech and Syracuse, and local broadcast coverage in year one.

Nine member-led tracks set the agenda. Each one is a working group that runs all year and then takes the public stage in November.
Data-driven development, brain and mental health, and the equipment science coming out of state labs.
Sport generates enormous data. This track is about who can actually use it - and who gets displaced on the way.
Name, image, likeness as a business system: deals, education, the transfer portal, and athlete-owned media.
Sponsorship, in-venue communications, and the design of attention.
Buildings as products: energy, operations, and the World Cup-to-Super Bowl venue pipeline.
Competitive play as an on-ramp into technology and creative work, K–12 upward.
Athlete transition, second careers, and keeping the state's technical talent in the state.
The academic track. Student research shares the same program as league and platform leaders.
Pathways into sports technology that do not require a playing career.
Georgia already has the teams, the research base and the talent. GENEXSIS exists so that what gets built here stays here - and so the run from the World Cup to the Super Bowl leaves an industry behind, not just a receipt.
“Sports has enormous data. Those who know how to use it will be the winners - and Georgia should be the beneficiary of that knowledge base.”
Grow the brand, get current on NIL and tech, meet partners who open real doors.
Customers, pilots and mentors - showcase product to the people who sign.
Deal flow in one afternoon, and the teams building the next wave in person.
Industry needs, research partners, and experiential slots for students.
Activate with athletes and innovators; test fan-engagement ideas on a real floor.
Sponsorship runs from presenting sponsor to meal, reception, demo and panel slots - plus year-round corporate partnership across research, NIL education, workforce pilots and community programs.
Securing sponsors, strategic ecosystem and activation partners for 2026 and 2027 now. Year one was backed by the Georgia Center of Innovation and Charles Schwab.
