ABOUT
SPORTACCORD CONVENTION
SportAccord Convention has become one of the key fixtures on the international sporting calendar. But the event itself has now evolved into a SportAccord Community… a diverse group of people from across the sports spectrum, and from all over the world, who value this unique opportunity to learn, to grow, and most of all to share – not only their varied experiences, but the cumulative wealth of knowledge everyone brings with them to our annual gatherings. SportAccord Convention continues to develop additional offerings – such as SportAccord Convention TV, the Mobile Event App, SportAccord Convention – The Annual, City Forum, The Daily event publication and the IF Forum, held in November – intended to be invaluable resources for everyone within the sports movement.
