Sports Business 2025: Forecasting the Future

Over the past five years, the changes in sports business have been unprecedented. TV viewership is down as a new generation of fans consume sports content on numerous devices and on their terms. The emphasis on the fan experience — both in-venue and at-home — is at a fever pitch level. And a new wave of deep-pocketed companies out of Silicon Valley are moving into the distribution business. In the next five to ten years, the changes will be even more dramatic. In this session a cross-section of senior sports executives will examine these changes.
