Introducing Beyond Sport House
Before the General Assembly, the Self Assembly
July 12, 2019
Registration opens today for the newest initiative in the Beyond Sport movement. One week before world leaders assemble at the United Nations to tackle the most pressing global challenges, we’re launching a brand new event to devise new ways to drive social change through sport to reach your -- and the world’s -- goals.
From September 11-13, Beyond Sport House will be a fully interactive and immersive event that we host, but our attendees put together – with more than 50 different speakers, panels, debates, exhibitions and interactive sessions to choose from. The event will take place at one of New York City’s already iconic locations, the SAP Next-Gen Lab, an open innovation with purpose space located on the 48th floor at 10 Hudson Yards. Featuring 360° aerial views of the city, the space was designed by the leading software powerhouse for communities committed to helping achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
“At Beyond Sport we are committed to providing the infrastructure and backdrop for some of the most thought provoking and engaging experiences for leaders and executives passionate about leveraging sport for purposeful outcomes,” said Alexandra Chalat, Managing Director, Beyond Sport. “We are at a critical juncture where new ideas are necessary, or we will fall behind the vision we have for future generations. Knowing there is nothing more powerful to drive community action than sports, we believe that Beyond Sport House is primed to be the catalyst to help move things forward.”
With 500 leading thinkers, makers, doers and philanthropists from around the world expected and all the major US sport leagues convening, Beyond Sport House will be a centralized location for attendees to create their own itineraries from a diverse range of options while also taking advantage of high-level networking, world class hospitality and the ability to lead content sessions and book meeting spaces.
Encompassed in the three days, will also be: Beyond Sport United, concentrating on the needs of teams, leagues and brands with a 2019 focus on ‘The Local Opportunity’; the Beyond Sport Global Awards, celebrating innovative organizations and individuals using sport to make the SDGs a reality -hosted by LEGENDS at One World Observatory; Community in Action, where participants engage with local youth and community leaders during fun, on-pitch sessions showcasing the best in sport for social change; and, 10Roundtables, a design-thinking session for senior leaders to collaborate on solutions on 10 targeted Global Goals.
