The Future of Sports Business: Finance and Investment

DLA Piper

DLA Piper is pleased to collaborate with Everything in Sport for its The Future of Sports Business: Finance and Investment conference. Join us for an afternoon where the sport-business ecosystem’s key decision-makers will gather to chart the sector’s next growth spurt. We’ll unpack the fresh wave of takeovers reshaping club and league ownership, reveal how private equity is rewriting governance and return, and explore why serious capital is finally flowing into women’s sport as both a social imperative and a strategic growth play.

Throughout the event, we’ll examine the investment forces transforming the fan experience – from smart arenas designed to earn 365-day returns, to data-driven streaming models that are overturning traditional media-rights valuations. Expect candid debate on risk, reward and regulation, plus hard numbers on the deals setting new benchmarks across football, rugby, cricket, motor sport and beyond.

Whether you manage capital, advise boards or are building the next high-growth sports-technology venture, you’ll leave with actionable intelligence and a black book of new contacts.

Places are limited – secure yours now and be part of the conversation shaping sport’s most lucrative frontier.

In case of any questions, please contact Danielle Vidigal.
