A 15-Day Marathon: Business Schools as Conveners of Inclusive Discussions to Explore Opportunities, Bridge Perspectives, and Promote Collaborative Change
As always, this article touches on highly significant issues that provoke deep reflection. It compels me to ask you to explore the prospects for advancing sports business management, and the potential value that could be unlocked in Egypt if the ecosystem were managed with professionalism and strategic foresight.
As you are aware, a study conducted by A.T. Kearney estimates the current value of the global sports industry to be between $480 billion and $620 billion annually. Other estimates indicate that total global revenues from the sports industry exceed $2 trillion, derived from combined spending and investment by consumers, governments, and corporations across three primary areas: fan engagement, sports products, and active sports participation.
Naturally, I do not have specific figures for Egypt, but I believe the subject is worth your attention. I am also convinced that business schools could play a pivotal role in shaping and supporting this promising sector.
While specific figures for Egypt may not be readily available, the implications are clear—this is a sector ripe for development. If Egypt were to harness its athletic talent, passionate fan base, and growing interest in wellness and sports culture, the economic and social benefits could be substantial.
Business schools, in particular, could play a vital role in shaping this future. By integrating specialized programs in sports management, fostering partnerships with clubs and federations, and promoting research on sports economics and policy, they can serve as a catalyst for innovation and long-term growth.
This is certainly a topic worthy of deeper attention.
