SPORTEL Rendez-vous Buenos Aires Four Weeks Away!

The SPORTEL 2024 season is in full swing! With just a few weeks remaining, anticipation is building for the kick-off of SPORTEL Rendez-vous Buenos Aires, taking place from 14 to 15 May at the Hilton Buenos Aires, an inspiring relocation of the Americas event, being held for the first time in a Spanish speaking country, in Argentina.

“It is a unique opportunity to develop the South American market, where potential for development is huge. This event will offer new networking, meetings, and business opportunities with top executives from the sports broadcast and tech industry from Argentina and beyond, in prepation to the many sports tournaments that the region will host in the upcoming years. To make this event a great success, I am delighted to be joining forces with valuable local partners, J & S EG, Lions Sports & Media, and ProEnter,” explains Laurent Puons, CEO of Monaco Mediax.

The event will kick off on Monday 13 May with an unforgettable Opening Party sponsored by Bet Warrior and 1190 Sports, in one of the most emblematic spots in Buenos Aires, Hipodromo Argentino Palermo, gathering all SPORTEL participants.
