Weekly registration statistics for the ABU-supported SPORTEL Monaco 2014 show a rise in registrations, with a strong increase of registered buyers already at 54 per cent.
“Current developments of the industry present more and wider interest in sports content overall and the SPORTEL organization has taken action to present even more buyers for this year’s convention,” a spokesperson says. “SPORTEL Monaco 2013 showcased a whopping 36 per cent [increase] in buyers.”
SPORTEL Monaco will stage its 25th anniversary convention in the Mediterranean principality from 7-10 October 2014.
