The Future Leaders of the Sports Industry
April 2nd was a proud milestone for the 2024–2025 ESSEC Sports Chair cohort.
Our students received their certificates at the Adidas Arena — a venue that perfectly embodies the energy and ambition of the sports industry.
The experience didn’t stop there: a behind-the-scenes tour of the arena and Paris Basketball with Jérémy Sauvan, followed by a thrilling EuroLeague game between Paris Basketball and EA7 Milan .
A big thank you to our partners for their inspiring words, and for their continued support.
And special thanks to the Paris Basketball team for the warm welcome and hospitality.
The ESSEC Sports Chair trains future leaders in sports business and provides them with an understanding of sport as a complex global industry with multiple stakeholders, and of current trends such as new funding models, digital, and e-sports. The Chair also develops future leaders across different industries through “lessons learned” from sport, ranging from the development of individual strengths and values to the effective leadership of groups and teams. Its aim is to become a think tank on the subject of sports management, to create a research community, and produce high-level academic and applied research.
We are available for all information about the chair and its activities.
