Sports Business Connect to debate the future outlook of sports business


Sports Business Connect (SBC), an “Unconference” event for the South African sports business sector ,will take place on 22 October 2020, with leading industry personalities to debate its future outlook, post Covid-19.


SBC is a series of online events and the first edition for the sports industry will feature a diverse list of participants sharing their expert views on why the sector should also have a “Plan B”, as well as how to overcome current challenges, to ensure its future sustainability.


SBC will invite industry thought leaders to share their outlook for the industry on three key issues, they would deem important, going forward in a very uncertain period, not only for sports business alone, but also for sport and society, as whole.


SBC will have an opening session wherein all the relevant issues will be highlighted in a short and succinct presentations with participating industry thought leaders each given 5 minutes to share their outlook with the delegates, in a highly interactive online platform, which will host the event.


SBC will also punt the idea of a “Sports Business University”, creating a strategic blue print for sports executives and service providers alike, to up skill their staff, to create a best practice benchmark for the industry, in very turbulent times. 


SBC will be a private event and only sports industry people, who’ve received an invitation, will be able to attend, since the organisers would like to create a conversation relevant to the industry and maintain the desired quality of debate, envisaged for the event.


SBC will also have a virtual expo, allowing industry agencies to showcase their services to the delegates and also engage them, via one on one video call chats.


SBC will conclude with the founding meeting of the South African Sports Industry Association (SASIA), which will be a networking platform as well as creating a representative voice for the industry, at large.


SBC is organised by Gerom Media Sports & Entertainment, the organisers of the Sports Business Indaba and Sports Leadership Awards, which is taking place online on 26-27 November 2020 and further details are available on www.sportsbusiness.co.za
