About

The Future of Sports Broadcasting Summit

The FIFA World Cup has taken the Arab world by storm and is currently the talk of the town, but the MENA region is also home to many other sports from cricket, horse racing, sailing and martial arts to camel racing, golf and rugby. The region plays host to several international events, and media stakeholders are investing heavily in creating dramatic and immersive viewer experiences for sports fans on TV and streaming platforms. From suppliers and vendors to solution producers, broadcasters and streamers, everyone within the sports chain is looking at commercial and technical strategies to elevate their game.

The Future of Sports Broadcasting Summit will serve as a springboard for all stakeholders in sports media – clubs, global and regional sports producers, broadcasters, rights holders, tech visionaries and talent and other media platforms – to discuss new trends, address and tackle upcoming challenges and share innovative strategies.
