Join San Jose State for a symposium on how technology is changing the game of football. The event will feature speakers from the Super Bowl 50 Host Committee and the National Football League, as well as technology experts who are revolutionizing the way the game of football is played and watched.

From customized and enhanced television viewing for the fan at home to new apps available to spectators in the connected stadium, panelists will talk about how recent advances are enhancing the game for fans. For the teams and players using the latest technologies in positioning and data analytics, panelists will talk about how early adopters can gain an edge in competition.
