Did you know that Smart Cities & Sport teamed up with TAFISA this year?

Business - 22 Oct 2019

We are always looking for new ways to share experiences and to empower cities to achieve their social, economic, promotional and environmental goals through sport.

This year we partner up with TAFISA, the Association for International Sport for All! As part of our Summit, we organize a joint programme centred on sport for all and innovative ways to get people moving. You can expect a unique, dynamic and interactive programme with an international and diverse line-up of speakers.

Highlights of the programme you don’t want to miss:

Sport has a crucial role to play in the way we want to shape our future. It has the power to transform lives and make a true difference in transforming and building communities. But what kind of world do we want to build for future generations? And how can sport be the driver of this change?
