New for 2021
This year, we’ve taken on board your suggestions following the success of our online series last year, where the virtual environment was ripe for innovation and even more interaction.
Along with content-rich presentations, interviews and panel discussions involving key thought leaders, the Summit, due to take place on 12, 13 and 14 October, now allows delegates to choose the sessions they wish to attend as well as take part in 1to1 networking, sponsor hubs, live polls and Q&A sessions.
The Sports and Active Nutrition Digital Summit Europe aims to finish on a high as the session’s panel discussion welcomes input from a number of professional sportspeople including Hal Robson-Kanu, ex-premier league footballer for West Bromwich Albion and the Wales national team.
Now better known as the founder of The Turmeric Co, Robson-Kanu joins the panel as they look to discuss life beyond protein and towards ingredients such as curcumin, botanicals and CBD.
Chaired by Sports Integrated’s Nick Morgan, the discussion homes in on the panel’s shared backgrounds both as elite athletes and now as brand founders.
With ex-professional rugby player and now founder of fourfivecbd Dominic Day joining the discussion, the debate extends to how recovery is not just post exercise - it is 24/7 - and how consumers currently engage with the concept of recovery and their products.
