One of the absolute coolest settings for a Web3 panel… The National Football League (NFL) 🏈 locker room @ Tottenham Hotspur Football Club Stadium 🏟️ Had a fantastic time jamming with Robby Yung and Ronan Joyce at last week’s INTERNATIONAL SPORTS CONVENTION + diving into the plumbing of what makes this tech so profound.

Women’s sports sit in a distinctly different lifecycle to men’s, with a growing and modern fan base, presenting vast and unique commercial potential. Well done to INTERNATIONAL SPORTS CONVENTION Co-founder Magdalena Fletcher for recognising this moment and infusing so many female centric panels and sessions into this years conference seamless delivered by the exceptional events team at Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.

I took my daughter to work today. As a breastfeeding mum, it was the only way I could do the job – moderating the International Sports Convention 2024. It struck me during a panel session on ‘Allyship in sport’ that this is what good male allyship looks like… Men supporting women to get the job done. So my thanks to Nigel Fletcher and the team at INTERNATIONAL SPORTS CONVENTION for being so accommodating for me and my girl.
