In addition Daniel Ayers (Lead Consultant, Seven League), Mark Bradley (Director, The Fan Experience Company) and Jon Burkhart (Content Marketing Consultant) will take part in an interactive panel discussion and will reflect on which organisations are leading the way in bringing sport closer to the fans, how they are achieving it and what they are measuring success by.

Alongside Drew Barrand and Stephen Brown, they will bring an insight that we hope will make the first Premier Sports Network event one that can’t be missed,” said Spencer Hidge, Executive Director at Eleven Sports & Entertainment.
