One of Scandinavia’s leading magazine on sport and society is now available in English. Sport is about passion. Sport is about emotion. Sport is about winning and losing. It is about being able to perform in a split second after years of training. But today, sport is also about big business and politics. And that is what the free magazine Sport Executive dedicates its focus to. This is what they have done for three years in Danish – and NOW they are doing it in English.
