TESTIMONIALS

I think this is a must-attend event for anyone involved in the football industry who wants to discuss and understand the game, which has become more complex and sophisticated. The need for professionals who truly understand the entire ecosystem is fundamental for the proper development of clubs, agencies, players, and governing bodies. So, I believe this is a unique opportunity.

Marcos Motta

For me, as a former football player and now as a coach — it was a great summit. I’ve got a lot of ideas and a lot of things I need to think about when it comes to modern football. As the game evolves, we need to keep learning every day if we want to stay in football — and I think this kind of summit is amazing. I’ll be here for every single edition.
