The Simple Idea
Sport for Business has been established five years and has carved out a niche as the go-to place for news, insight and analysis within the commercial world of Irish sport.
With encouragement from some of Ireland’s largest and most active commercial sponsors, we are expanding the idea to the world of Entertainment.
We would love for you to be part of building a new way in which brands, promoters, venues, festivals service providers can work better together.
