The main theme for the convention is The Future of the Olympic Movement. The subthemes are:

• The Evolving Olympic Landscape (e.g., esports series, digitalization, and climate change)
• Effective Strategies for Safe Sport 
• Olympic AI Agenda: The future of AI for NOCs
• The Impact of My MEMOS Project
• Miscellaneous (presentation related to the future of the Olympic Movement but does not fit one of the other specific subthemes)

For those presenting on the impact of their MEMOS project, Olympic Solidarity will select the best presentation, and the person will be given a new award (like the Madella Award but for actual project impact). Stay tuned for more details on this new award!
