Artificial intelligence is increasingly entering new areas of our lives — from industry and medicine, through cybersecurity, to data analysis in organizations and public institutions. At the Łukasiewicz – AI Institute, we develop technologies based on advanced data analytics, digital models, and decision-support systems. These solutions are increasingly being applied in new, rapidly developing fields.
One of them is professional sport, where data analysis and modern technologies are beginning to play a key role in training processes, team management, and monitoring athletes’ performance. That is why we are particularly pleased about the opportunity to collaborate with one of the most recognizable sports clubs in the region.
On the occasion of the 62nd anniversary of GKS Katowice, we officially signed a cooperation agreement that will take training and team management to an entirely new level.

New opportunities at the intersection of science and sport
This collaboration demonstrates the great potential that lies in combining the worlds of science, technology, and professional sport. By using analytical tools and artificial intelligence, it becomes possible not only to better understand training processes but also to develop innovative solutions that may find applications in other areas in the future.
It is also another example of how advanced technologies can truly support practice — in this case on the field, during training sessions, and in the daily work of the coaching staff. For fans, it marks the beginning of a new chapter where the tradition of sport meets the latest achievements in technology.
