SPORTS LAW AND BUSINESS

It's not difficult to see why sport is such big business and continues to attract huge investment in spite of an uncertain economic climate.  The opening and closing ceremonies at the forthcoming London 2012 Olympics alone may net broadcasters up to £5bn in advertising revenues.

With sport becoming increasingly commercial in nature and reaching out to an ever greater global audience, the increasing competitive pressures placed on rights holders and organizations mean that sport continues to hit the headlines all too often for the wrong reasons.  The recent spot fixing scandal by Pakistani cricket players, and allegations of corruption in FIFA have rocked cricket and football to the core.  Meanwhile, the RFU is mired in accusations of poor corporate governance, the NBA lockout has brought basketball to a standstill and the La Shaun Merrit case has highlighted the confusion surrounding anti-doping laws, paving the way for legal challenges from athletes in the run up to the Olympics.

Now more than ever the issues surrounding the commercial exploitation, corporate governance and regulation of sport must be mastered if you are to operate successfully in today’s sporting arena.  In just two days, C5’s 14th International Sports Law & Business Forum will provide you with the necessary tools and know-how you need to succeed.
