Organising Sustainable Sport Events.
South Africa’s premier sport event organisers will meet-up on 8 February 2019 for the Sports Events Forum, which is scheduled for Day Two of The Sports Summit.
Delegates will debate sustainable event strategies and engage sponsors and service providers on how to forge sustainable partnerships.
The Forum will kick-off with an hour-long Breakfast Speed Networking Session wherein delegates will introduce themselves to South Africa’s premier sponsorship agencies and it’s an ideal event for sponsorship seekers inclusive of event organisers, clubs and federations respectively, to introduce their sport events or properties.
The Sport Events Forum will feature key debates on the best practices required to manage sport events in a disruptive economy created by social and digital media and its impact on sponsorship and marketing as well as online video, podcasts and live-event broadcasting strategies respectively.
Managing sport events is no longer a part-time consideration and the Forum will also unpack the key challenges facing executives on the issue of governance and ethics to ensure transparency and accountability.
Two key sessions will focus on the best practices required when Staging Sustainable Mass Participation Sport Events as well as Managing Sports Leagues and Tournaments respectively.
The Forum will also feature a Sport Events Sponsorship Session, where both delegates and panelists alike, will engage each other on the key issues pertaining to commercial partnerships in sport events.
Some of South Africa’ leading sponsorship decision-makers will share their key considerations when deciding to sponsor and partnering sport events.
Sponsorship Agencies will also feature in a highly interactive panel discussion to debate the current trends in the sponsorship and marketing arena as well as how to Draft and Negotiate Winning Sponsorship Proposals.
Our guests will be allowed ample time to engage our panellists through interactive Q&A sessions and delegates will also be afforded the opportunity to submit their One-Page Sponsorship Proposals to our experts for further follow up.
The Forum will conclude with a Sponsorship Masterclass on Saturday 9 February 2019.
The Sports Event Sponsorship Report will also be released at the Forum analysing the industry’s outlook for 2019.
