New Format for SPORTEL Spring Event
SPORTEL will introduce a new format when it returns to Miami after a two-year absence.
For the first time, a high-end one-day conference will be held on March 3 ahead of the three-day deal-making convention on March 4-6.
"We took the decision to organize the conference before the convention in order to make sure everyone has their schedules clear, and it is not running in the middle of other events when clients are already busy in meetings. This way, it is an opportunity for us to gather our community to attend the conference," said Sportel CEO Laurent Puons.

UNESCO Supporting Global Sports Week Paris
Global Sports Week Paris makes its debut at the Louvre in February.
The core agenda forthe English-language event, which will be held from February 5-7, will focus on exploring the two-way relationship between sport and society at a time of disruptive change.
Organizers say it will feature well-known figures from the worlds of global entertainment and government as part of a program of "talk show"-style discussions and interviews in the round.
"Among other powers, sport fosters social inclusion and gender equality. The Global Sports Week is a special opportunity for activating this power collectively," says the Director-General of UNESCO Audrey Azoulay.
UNESCO is a supporter, joining a group including French President Emmanuel Macron, who is High Patron of the event, and Founding Partners BPCE Group and the French Ministry of Sports. The International Paralympic Committee, UEFA and EPCR are also backing the event.
The plans are for Global Sports Week Paris to become an annual event.
