π΄ Finished off with feet on the sand...and almost a dip.
π Beth Lester Sidhu summed it up: "SPORT BEACH is a global platform connecting athletes, brands and marketers"...and it is something to behold.
What has blown me away about Sport Beach in the three years I have been invited, is the calibre of marketers, CEOs, sports personalities, directors, commentators and creators that are on stage.
π₯ This year, just to name a few of the well know sport stars: Shaquille O'Neal, Megan Rapinoe, Lindsey Vonn, Noah Lyles, Kevin Durant, Maria Sharipova, Lando Norris, Carlos Sainz Jr. and many more.
You brought the energy Mr Ryan Linder.
