The Event
The convergence of sport and business has created a diverse international community of sports persons, agents, investors, governments, supranational bodies, funders, and consumer brands. As business models have evolved, the Sports sector and the stakeholders who operate in it, have moved to a potentially more litigious environment. How do counsel navigate this field in an industry which at its core is based on relationships and which operates in a time sensitive environment where live events are at its heart?
Join Paula Robinson (General Counsel. Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games), and 39 Essex Chambers barristers, The Hon. Wayne Martin AC KC and Paul Hayes KC, who will share:
- An insider’s perspective on the current legal landscape in institutional sport and the commercial drivers that require prevention of escalation of disputes;
- The role that ADR can play and the added value it may bring to the resolution of commercial sport-related disputes;
- Recent case studies across the spectrum of the Sports dispute resolution field.
