Back to EpisodesDeciphering India’s major event plans; who will succeed Sally Bolton at Wimbledon?
Description
India’s appetite and readiness to host major global events was one of the main topics at this week’s Indian Sports Summit in Bangalore, and James Emmett is on the ground with the mood and the colour from on and off stage.
With the IPL in full swing, there’s the latest on the league’s media rights planning and what its strategy might be in a changing domestic market, and James has the inside line on Royal Challengers Bangalore’s new ownership.
Alongside David Cushnan, dialling in this week from New York for SBJ’s Sports Business Awards and Leaders’ Attention Seekers series, there’s also time to discuss the news that Sally Bolton is standing down as CEO at Wimbledon and the expertise her successor might need as the All England Lawn Tennis Club expands in line with the other tennis Grand Slams.
