Why MESLIS 2027

People. Rules. Opportunities. A stronger sports industry.

MESLIS brings together the people who own, operate, regulate, finance, commercialise and defend sport. The programme focuses on the moments where legal, commercial and integrity decisions have real consequences — not generic conference presentations.

Core themes

The issues shaping the next era of sport.

01

Sports Investment & Ownership

Deal structures, governance, investor protections, club ownership and cross-border risk.

02

Regulation & Governance

Federation rules, league governance, regulatory change, compliance and enforcement.

03

Athlete Rights & Employment

Contracts, transfers, image rights, employment disputes and athlete representation.

04

Technology, Data & AI

Player data, AI, privacy, performance technology, digital rights and emerging liability.

05

Integrity & Anti-Doping

Match integrity, investigations, betting risk, anti-doping, ethics and crisis response.

06

Disputes & Enforcement

Arbitration, disciplinary processes, cross-border enforcement and high-stakes disputes.

The MESLIS difference
LIVE

Decision-room formats

Delegates do not just listen. They see how senior experts respond when facts move, deadlines tighten and legal or reputational risk changes in real time.

View Speakers

MESLIS Live Sports Tribunal

A dispute is argued, tested and decided before the room — exposing legal, commercial and governance consequences live.

Transfer Deadline

A high-pressure transfer scenario where clubs, counsel, agents and decision-makers manage contractual, regulatory and reputational risk against the clock.

Integrity Crisis Simulation

A fast-moving integrity incident forces leaders to investigate, communicate and decide what happens next before all facts are known.

Deal & Rights Negotiation

A live commercial negotiation around ownership, media, sponsorship or athlete rights — showing what changes when leverage shifts.
