About Us.
Restarting our events in 2024 after a hiatus of a few years, Gerom Media has been organising Sport Business Events since 2012 when it first hosted the Sponsorship Forum and since then it managed to stage more than 40 events with more than 100 top speakers and thousands of delegates. Our events explore the essential business conversation with a firm focus on the mandate held by the custodians of sport and more in particular how they respond to giving life to it. Note: the word “Indaba” is a Zulu reference and it means a “Gathering” to discuss important issues.
