Sir Clive Woodward is the latest global leader in sport to be added to a star studded line up for One Zero, the Sports and Technology conference taking place in Dublin for the first time on Friday, October 21st.
Woodward was the English Rugby Manager behind the team’s World Cup success in 2003. He then moved into wider sport becoming Director of Sport at the British Olympic Association from 2006 until Team GB’s massive success at the London 2012 Olympic Games.
“Woodward has always been ahead of the curve and it was his adoption and understanding of player technology that transformed England Rugby from the sixth best team in the world to the pinnacle of the sport,” said One Zero Co-Founder Rob Hartnett.
“From skin tight jerseys to impact mapping he changed the way the sport was managed in the professional era.”
“To then go on and work the same magic across the range of Olympic sport was beyond the dreams of most coaches and we are pleased to be bringing him to Dublin for a very special day of sport, technology and leadership at One Zero.
Woodward joins leading global influencers including Jaimie Fuller, Lance Armstrong, Alex Trickett of Twitter, Mounir Zok of the US Olympic Committee, Arnaud Simon of Eurosport and Matt Rogan of Two Circles on the agenda for the one day event at the RDS.
The one day event has attracted interest from around the world and will bring the global sporting spotlight on Dublin.
It will appeal to those who are interested in sport in all its forms, from how it is watched by consumers, to how it is played by teams and advanced by technology.
In a world where Olympic Broadcasting rights are sold for $12 Billion and Manchester United last week became the first British soccer club to increase overall revenues in a year to more than €600 million, sport is becoming the business and technology story of the decade.
One Zero is at the heart of that. Further keynote speakers will be announced in the coming days and weeks as well as the full line up of speakers for high level panels on e-sports, digital media, ethics in sport, fan engagement, innovation and sports investment.
