SPORTELAsia 2018 – FINAL PRESS RELEASE
-
Thai Minister of Tourism and Sport & GAISF President Discuss Impact of Upcoming SportAccord
THAI MINISTER FOR TOURISM AND SPORT & GAISF PRESIDENT DISCUSS IMPACT OF SPORTACCORD 2018 FOR THE HOST NATION, IFS AND GLOBAL SPORTS INDUSTRY
LAUSANNE, Switzerland – In a recent interview, the Thai Minister for Sport and Tourism Mr. Weerasak Kowsurat discussed the importance of SportAccord 2018 as a global platform for the international sports community and the host nation Thailand.
Speaking to one of the leading Thai newspapers – The Nation, the Minister commented on what it means for Thai businesses and delegates to be involved in the World Sport & Business Summit: “Logistically, it’s very difficult to get all of these sports representatives together in any one particular city at the same time. At SportAccord, every sports fan or sports player will have access to the big names at some point. The second important thing is the content that will be discussed during SportAccord. The delegates will address the major trends and issues in sports, many of which will be very beneficial for participants or those who have access to SportAccord. They will get to understand the directions and trends in sport, which will help sports planners and sports industry representatives to gain a clearer picture of what they should be doing or where they should be investing.”
The Minister also explained how well SportAccord is able to convey the true ‘spirit of sport’ and carry these messages to a diverse audience on an international scale.
Commenting on the plans Thailand is working towards becoming the top sports destination for staging global events the Minister said: “It is about doing three things. The first is to continue to raise the bar. The second is to keep the variety – whether it is to do with geography or culture … as we can accommodate all kinds of different sports events all year around. The third is to keep the spirt of sport in discussions on a regular basis.”
With this in mind, some of the sports federations of Thailand will also take part in a Sports Festival as part of this year’s SportAccord 2018. Aiming to capture the imagination of citizens and delegates alike, attendees will have the opportunity to mingle and witness a variety of sports, as well as experience the friendship and culture that Thailand has to offer.
SportAccord delegates will be treated to a spectacular performance featuring The Royal Barge Procession (Krabuan Phayuhayattra Chonlamak) as part of the Opening Ceremony due to take place on Tuesday 17 April at the Royal Thai Navy Convention Hall in Bangkok. This will be accompanied by Keng Tachaya, a well-known international singer with more than 20 global awards to his name.
The stunning performance will encompass the theme ‘The Sports Dream Destination’ and reinforce The Year of Thai Life Style for 2018 in Thailand. The exquisite Royal Barge marking the occasion is typically only presented at the most significant cultural and religious events. It will symbolise Thailand’s readiness to play host to the world of sport in its quest to become the World Sports Hub and Sports Dream Destination.
Building on the spirit of cultural exchange and rising to the SportAccord occasion, the host nation will also stage a Thai Pavilion giving delegates further opportunity to discover the cultural treasures Thailand has to offer and sample a delicious range of Thai culinary delights.
Speaking of the Host City as well as the 6-day event featured in the official eMagazine The Preview, Patrick Baumann, President of SportAccord and GAISF said: “”I am delighted that SportAccord is coming to Bangkok, a truly great city in a region which is playing an increasingly important role in world sport.
SportAccord is firmly established as the essential meeting place for all the major stakeholders in sport around the globe and the organisations and businesses which provide services for them. Consequently, for a week in April, Bangkok will become the hub of world sport, creating a significant opportunity for Thai businesses to arrange to meet and engage with International Federations and other sports organisations to identify opportunities for co-operation and for business.
GAISF and its members are looking forward to visiting Bangkok for our most important meetings of the year and we are determined to leave a positive legacy for the Thai sports community and business operating in the sports sector.” Organisations who wish to take part should register for SportAccord 2018 which gives them access to the entire conference programme. As part of the Official Schedule, SportAccord will host well over 20 networking events and a popular 3-day Exhibition, as part of the delegate experience.

Gwangju promotes Korean unification and Industry 4.0 through sports
Host City: Why did Gwangju decide to bid for the 2019 FINA World Championships?
Dr Cho: The city of Gwangju had hosted a few major international sporting events, such as the FIFA World Cup quarter-final and the 2015 Universiade, so we wanted to build this image as the sports city of Korea.
As a legacy of the Universiade we had the international standard swimming pool. We wanted to utilise this venue but at the same time wanted to build further the city brand. So that’s why we decided to host this World Championships.
Host City: What impact do expect hosting the Championships will have on the city?
Dr Cho: We have a bigger vision than just impact on the city itself. Gwangju is the central city and the pillar of democracy, peace and human rights of South Korea. That’s why we wanted to let the spirit of Gwangju into the championships and chose our slogan “Diving into Peace”.
Through the Championships, all the initiatives will come together to create peace-building in the Korean peninsula, in South East Asia and further.
Host City: To what extent will the North and South Korean teams join during the Championships?
Dr Cho: There are three phases. The first one will be the participation of North Korea.
After that we are going to seek a joint ceremony, such as maybe marching together.
And after that, if the condition allows, we will try to create a unified team. All possibilities are open at the moment.
We had a unified ice hockey team at the PyeongChang Olympics, but I think we have more favourable conditions than that because we have even more preparation time to discuss creating a unified team. And also, there is a good atmosphere building between North and South Korea; so things are working very favourably for us.
Right now, we are not thinking specifically about what events we want to host. However, we want to strongly be positioned as the sports city of Korea; that is why after this we want to open our eyes and see what events are possible for us to bring to Gwangju.
Host City: Why is Gwangju focusing on sports specifically for its development?
Dr Cho: Firstly, Gwangju is the central cultural hub of Asia. When you talk about culture there are two major strands: one is art, the other is sport. Because of that, we think that when we bring sports events to Gwangju it’s going to create synergy with the arts, to really promote our city as the central hub of culture in Asia.
The second point is that we want to promote the value of the city, what we are good at, through sports. Because that is one of the easiest ways for us to really promote the merits and values that the city has.
The third point is that Gwangju is really building an industrial base for the fourth industrial revolution – for example, robotics, AI and IoT. We also want to promote that idea through sports.
Gwangju has a high concentration of energy industries. We want to create a revolution in renewable energies and our industries through sport.
At the same time, we have an automotive industry base in Gwangju. This industry is moving towards the fourth industrial revolution and we want to promote this idea through sports events.

Under the collaboration framework for Soccerex USA, the Confederation will have a key role in the convention activities, including presentations of senior executives on the organization’s evolution and leading industry trends.

Philippe Moggio, who acts as the chief executive officer of the Confederation, has helped usher in a new era for the organization, pushing its vision and business operations to new levels of growth and professionalism. He brings to the board his global vision providing core advice through many years of experience at Concacaf and within the sports industry.
This is a crucial time for the Confederation following the historic win of Canada, Mexico and the United States to host the FIFA World Cup in 2026. In addition to the culmination of years of reforms and streamlined governance, the announcement of a new organizational identity – along with the expansion of clubs and national teams competitions.
“As a proud organization based in Miami, FL, Concacaf is thrilled to welcome Soccerex USA to a first-class sports and tourism destination. Hosting this industry platform on ‘home soil’ will draw key stakeholders and experts for a productive discussion on the business of football and to explore core areas to our ONE Concacaf Vision including the access to more opportunities to grow the game within our region and throughout the world,” said Concacaf General Secretary Philippe Moggio. “We look forward to working with the Soccerex team and its advisory board in supporting a successful edition of Soccerex USA.”
“It is a real pleasure to be working with Philippe and all the team at Concacaf. For us, to do an event in this region, it is essential we work with the right people and I am sure that with Concacaf’s support, we can deliver a vital business and development platform for Concacaf and all the nations they represent,” said Soccerex COO, Rita Revie.
Soccerex USA is sponsored by the London Football Exchange, the world’s first fully integrated soccer club stock exchange and marketplace and hosted in partnership with General American Capital Partners. The two-day event will take place at Miami’s iconic Marlin’s Park and will comprise an exhibition showcasing the latest soccer business, performance and technology innovations. It will include a program of structured and informal networking events to connect delegates from across the USA and the rest of the world and it will feature a market leading conference agenda, with international experts tacking topics such as league expansion, women’s soccer, youth development, eSports, stadia technology and investment.
In addition to Philippe Moggio, other members of the Advisory Board include Oscar Mayo, International Development Director, LaLiga, Mayi Cruz Blanco, former Head of Women’s Football Development, FIFA and David Dein, founding member of the English Premier League.
