Fantastic few days at SportNXT in Melbourne this week! We -at Sportian together with Alvaro Diaz Aguirre and George Gregan- engaged on many discussions with great people and organizations that are participating and shaping the Sports & Entertainment industry. Many interesting sessions regarding the future of the Industry, including topics like fan engagement, diversity in sports, reinvention of fan experiences, the media rights landscape shifts, the evolution of in-stadium fan experience, and the participation of leading organizations like FIFA, NBA, ESPN/Disney, LA 2028 Olympic games, Brisbane 2032, Tennis Australia, Cricket Australia, AFL, Football Australia, F1, Basketball Australia, and many more. We also had the opportunity to visit the fantastic Marvel Stadium and discuss how Technology is helping reinvent the fan experience, drive attendance and fandom, and also create new business opportunities as well. Many thanks to Global Victoria for organizing such a great event. Thanks Dominic O'Brien, Gönül Serbest and team for your hospitality!

It was great to be in Melbourne (Naarm) this week for SportNXT to highlight how we can proactively shape the future of sport in Australia.   I enjoyed sharing Brisbane 2032’s progress and what lies ahead with the #SportNXT attendees.   With #Paris24 in our focus and #LA28 on the horizon, it’s time for us all to get behind the #Brisbane2032 Games so we can collaborate and deliver a Games to be proud of.  

Today, SportNXT had the pleasure of hosting two fantastic groups for some iconic sports infrastructure visits in and around Melbourne First, one group delved into the world of soccer at the Home of the Matildas, a world-class precinct built to support the aspirations of the CommBank Matildas. While our second group explored Marvel Stadium and it’s new upgrades nestled in the heart of Melbourne’s CBD. To top it off, our Global Victoria Trade Delegation enjoyed an exclusive presentation by AGPC EGM Dale Nardella. Both groups then got trackside and experienced the Australian Grand Prix to see how the premier international event comes together!

Heard some great speakers today at SportNXT - commercialisation of women’s sport was a highlight, along with hearing from Wrexham FC’s Shaun Harvey. Speaking on a panel with Kylie Rogers and Alistair Dobson, expertly hosted by Jarrad Provis was a great thrill - haven’t had the privilege of doing that for a while! We spoke about fan experiences with the lens of each of our unique landscapes - what we are doing today and what’s coming.
