Leaders in Sport
We are an organiser of inspiring events for the professional world of sport. We are a central hub for brilliant content from those events. And we are a global network for professionals in sport. We service two distinct groups in sport; professionals involved in the business side of sport (driving results off the field) and those on the performance side (dedicated to getting results on the field of play). This division ensures that Leaders content is targeted and relevant to the audience, and that everyone in the audience at a Leaders event is relevant to one another..
