City Events 2013 has officially come to an end. This year, over 250 participants from 24 countries gathered at the Beaulieu Congress Center, to discuss the future of sporting events. The theme, "Sporting Events in the Near Future," lead to a diverse and interesting set of discussions; hitting on topics such as creating long-term value from your event, venue legacy, and tools and trends of tomorrow. The conference was marked by high quality debates, thanks to our highly esteemed speakers, excellent moderators, and an enthusiastic and engaged audience. In addition to excellent speeches, and rousing debates, City Events is first and foremost an opportunity to meet and connect with individuals from the international sports business.
