• To realise the potential of physical activity in healthcare systems we must enable institutions to use data in innovative ways and ensure they are AI-ready.

• To support these new innovative use cases we must accelerate our work to make physical activity data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable and we must encourage organisations to develop their data practices.

• Why create a DX model for leisure, fitness and sport?

• Methodology and approach.

• What have we learnt?
