Key topics will include navigating media rights strategies, crossover' opportunities between parallel ecosystems such as esports and sports betting, groundbreaking new tech and digital evolutions for broadcast, fan engagement and much more.

The Shift in Sports Media Rights Strategies

How are strategies adapting to both the unforeseen on-going pandemic, alongside the foreseen but seismic growth in online content and fragmented markets. Has the bubble burst?

New Streaming and Broadcast Strategies

Current trends and future strategies for broadcast have accelerated two-fold due to the impact of COVID and new tech dominating the scene. Though cable is insisting it will never go away, traditional consummation of sports is changing exponentially with content owners selling their rights to broadcasters, while growing revenue by connecting directly to a new generation of tech savvy audiences through subscription based streaming platforms offering personalised, added value content. Where will this strategy lead and how does this model work? Will consumers ultimately be able to and indeed ready to pay for multi-packages to follow their favorite sports?
