SFS EXTRATIME
SFS ExtraTime is an applied innovation program focused on football and the sports industry, promoted by Social Media Soccer and Theorema srl SB.
With the 2026 edition, Extra evolves from a pitch competition into a structured and permanent platform that integrates scouting, training, experimentation, and market access.
The program is built around three main pillars: an Innovation Tour across Italian universities to identify new talent and ideas from the research stage; a dual call targeting both university teams and established startups; and an Innovation Day during the Social Football Summit, serving as the program’s culmination with a pitch competition, thematic panels, and an exhibition area where innovators, companies, investors, and clubs come together.

Each session serves as a dynamic forum to explore the most current and strategic topics in the Football Industry, providing practical insights, innovative perspectives, and actionable strategies.
