In 2011, Eventica launched the first World Football Forum in Moscow, following the announcement of Russia’s first FIFA World Cup™ in 2018. Since then, this annual event has become firmly established in the football industry calendar, bringing together leading figures from football across the globe to major international football hubs.
The agenda for the World Football Forum 2014 in Moscow had something to offer all players in the football industry. It gave suppliers and service providers a much deeper understanding of the opportunities available in the run-up to 2018, and valuable insight on how to approach doing business in Russia.
Following the success of Inside World Football Moscow Forum in 2011 and the World Football Forum Moscow in 2014, Eventica Sport was proud to bring its annual football industry event back to Moscow in June 2015.
The central theme of the World Football Forum in 2016 was the ‘New Geography of Football’ – the high-growth new markets for the international game.
Football and industry leaders from China and across Asia and Europe were heading home tonight from the World Football Forum in the Chinese city of Changsha, following three days of discussion, insight – and some world-class football from international football legends Robert Pires, Giazka Mendieta, Gianluca Zambrotta, Gilberto da Silva, David James and Roberto Carlos.
