THE EVENT

Following our successful inaugural event in 2023, The Summit returns this autumn with a new partner – RedBird Capital.

This year we’re focusing on Raising the Game, collectively looking beyond the pitch to future proof our industry and better meet the needs of tomorrow’s fan, today.

Join the owners and decision makers of sport’s most influential organizations as we look at where we are now, and where we need to be – as we tackle the big questions impacting and transforming our industry in a way that we have never seen before.

Framed by exclusive insight from established voices in the industry, get ready for a program of unique and thought-provoking content, networking, personal development and world-class entertainment.
