The Congress is a lighthouse project of international significance in the scientific community. Prof. Dr. Andreas Hebbel-Seeger and Prof. Dr. Thomas Horky are two members of the Macromedia faculty in the Scientific Advisory Board of the Congress. The conference is firmly established as a nationwide research project at the Macromedia University of Applied Sciences. In addition to students from other locations, various professors from Macromedia University are also present as speakers and guests.

On 25 and 26 September 2017, the Macromedia University is organizing the 3rd anniversary of the ad hoc group Media Sport and Sports Communication in the DGPuK. The organizer is Prof. Dr. Thomas Horky, Chairman of the Research Commission at Macromedia University. The conference provides a forum for current research on all topics of (media-mediated) sports communication and phenomena of media sport. For submissions of lecture proposals (with the exception of the topic panel "Randsport", see Call for Paper) no thematic guidelines are made. Therefore, research papers dealing with the topic of media sport and sports communication are presented from different scientific perspectives.
