Story Highlights
The SPORTEL 2024 season is in full swing! With just a few weeks remaining, anticipation is building for the kick-off of SPORTEL Rendez-vous Buenos Aires, taking place from 14 to 15 May at the Hilton Buenos Aires, an inspiring relocation of the Americas event, being held for the first time in a Spanish speaking country, in Argentina.
It is a unique opportunity to develop the South American market, where potential for development is huge. This event will offer new networking, meetings, and business opportunities with top executives from the sports broadcast and tech industry from Argentina and beyond, in prepation to the many sports tournaments that the region will host in the upcoming years. To make this event a great success, I am delighted to be joining forces with valuable local partners, J & S EG, Lions Sports & Media, and ProEnter, explains Laurent Puons, CEO of Monaco Mediax.
The event will kick off on Monday 13 May with an unforgettable Opening Party sponsored by Bet Warrior and 1190 Sports, in one of the most emblematic spots in Buenos Aires, Hipodromo Argentino Palermo, gathering all SPORTEL participants.
We are very excited about the arrival of SPORTEL America to our country, having an event of international quality in Argentina and being the first time in a Spanish-speaking country will give a lot of prestige to the industry. says Jorge Strika, CEO of J &S Entertainment Group.
Argentina was a pioneer in the TV cable industry, reaching the highest level of coverage in all Americas. It has also a high level of content production, distributed all throughout the continent. SPORTEL Rendez-vous Buenos Aires will serve as the essential bridge for the global sports tech and media industry, facilitating the exchange of experiences, best practices, and innovations between the North and South American continent and the SPORTEL community.
These types of events help strengthen and expand the development of the sports industry on our continent, generating new business opportunities, adds Daniel Tamborini, CEO of Lions Sports & Media.
Through a series of engaging Masterclasses, Keynotes and Presentations, the Conference Summit, will dive into emerging industry trends, which will enable the international SPORTEL Community to explore new channels and partnership opportunities within LATAM and North America.
Hot topics will include: Latin America - The real land of opportunity; Reaching a new generation: trends in streaming and digital content; The collaborative model that is changing the landscape of Peruvian football; How the PFL created a global MMA powerhouse; AI shaping the future of sports creating a new era of innovation; Pioneers of production for major sporting events; New markets for in-play sports betting; The Pitch Perfect session and more to be announced!
