In today’s 76th episode of the Sport for Business Podcast, we are chatting with David McHugh, the newly minted captain of Wasserman’s Irish operation, founder of Line Up Sports, friend, mentor, and commercial adviser to a host of Irish sporting stars including Tadgh Furlong, Paul O’Donovan and Kellie Harrington.

We talk about what that role means in terms of his relationship with clients, about the power of sport and the special way in which the Irish public engages with its favourite personalities.

An interesting conversation from behind the spotlight and one I think you’ll enjoy.

We met up at the offices of Wasserman in Ireland, before the new branding has even gone up, surrounded by the jerseys and memorabilia of a life in sport.

 

Sport for Business will host a Smart Minds Members Round Table on Sport and Data at the Dublin HQ of Fanatics on Thursday, August 22nd, one of ten events currently in planning for the remainder of 2024.
