Description
WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND
We are at the beginning of what some have called a Golden Decade for British Sport. In addition to the 2012 Olympics, Britain will host the 2015 Rugby World Cup, the 2013 Rugby League World Cup, the 2013 Commonwealth Games and perhaps even the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Sport and the business of sport will take an ever more prominent place in national affairs and this conference will consider the key legal issues which affect sport and which will form such an important part of the planning and implementation of the Golden Decade.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Lawyers, advisors, agents and all executives working in or with the sports industry, its federations and governing bodies, and all those working in any way with sports events, administration, rights, broadcasting, or sponsorship.
