⚽ Can data beat the bookmakers? On June 22, we are excited to join UA Ruhr and Columbia Global Reports for German House of Soccer: Can Data Beat the Bookmakers? as part of Germany Day at the German House of Soccer in New York City. In this talkshow-style conversation, Professor Andreas Groll of TU Dortmund University and Jonathan Cohen, author of Losing Big: America’s Reckless Bet on Sports Gambling, will explore how data science, predictive modeling, and sports betting are changing the way we analyze, watch, and engage with soccer. From World Cup forecasting and match prediction to the growing influence of betting markets, the discussion will ask who really understands the game best: algorithms, bookmakers, or the fans themselves? 📅 June 22, 2026 🕓 4:00–5:00 PM 📍 Chelsea Industrial, New York City 🎟️ Free admission with registration https://lnkd.in/enrYmNhA Please make sure to select June 22 from the drop-down menu when registering.
