The annual Sport for Business Women in Sport Conference for 2024 will take place on Wednesday, November 27th, in Dublin City Centre.
Our two keynote interviews will be with Sarah Keane and Queenie Porter.
Sarah is the President of the Olympic Federation and CEO of Swim Ireland and is recognised as among the finest leaders we have.
She will shortly be stepping down from her role with the Olympic Federation, and this will be an opportunity to reflect on the journey from building a team to salvage the reputation of the body after Rio 2016 to the Triumph of Paris 2024
Queenie Porter is the Vice President of West Ham United in the Barclay’s Women’s Super League and a vibrant entrepreneur leading in sport and business.
It will be a morning of stories and connections, of inspiration and opportunity for you to meet with fellow attendees and spark ideas that could become the subject of our 2025 Conference.
