EASM 2014 conference is “Social and Commercial Impact of Sport”
The 22nd Conference of the European Association for Sport Management (EASM) will take place in Coventry, on 9th-12th September 2014.
The Conference theme is “Social and Commercial Impact of Sport”. Legacy is becoming an increasingly crucial issue when organising major sport events and was at the core of the London bid to organise the 2012 Olympic Games, of which Coventry was a co-host city. Two years after the Games, what has been their actual impact? More generally this theme invites participants to think of how the social and commercial impacts of sport create special issues and challenges for sport managers, from local amateur sport clubs to international mega-events. With a mix of scientific and professional contributions, prestigious key note speakers and an exciting social programme, the 22nd EASM Conference in Coventry will be the perfect place for sport management academics and practitioners to exchange ideas, discuss and network.
