iSportconnect Directors Club Germany Sold Out for Inaugural Event

After having attracted a huge amount of interest, doctor the 50 places for the first iSportconnect Directors Club Germany on November 17, 2011, in Munich are sold out.

Delegates from BMW and BMW Motorsport, Allianz, 1. FC Nürnberg, EON, Osram, Deutscher Eishockey Bund, Nürnberg Ice Tigers, TSV 1860 München, Sky Deutschland and Thomas Sabo confirmed their participation.

Sonja Kreye, iSportconnect Director of German Operations is looking forward to an exciting event: “I guess that the topic of ‘hospitality & the law’ is one reason that helped attracting that much interest. Unclear compliance rules when it comes to inviting business partners to sports events are one of the biggest threats of today’s sports and sponsorship industry.

“Due to the support of Germany’s association of the biggest sponsors, S 20 e. V., I am pleased to present some great speakers and panellists with Dr. Christian Deuringer, Head of Global Brand Management Allianz SE, tolimit agency CEO Hans-Bernd Kamps, Deloitte representative Stefan Ludwig and S 20 e. V. General Manager Josef Stadtfeld. I am looking forward to some great discussions.”

The iSportconnect Directors Club is iSportconnect’s live-event format for the sports industry and will be organized in Germany three times per year from 2012 in Munich. Further Directors Clubs will follow in New York, London, Barcelona and other major cities in the world.

To stay updated on the first iSportconnect Directors Club Germany, watch out for the conference video and post-event release.
