The Sports & Tourism Summit 2026, organised by EAGLE Sports Integrity Services, brought together leading representatives from sport, tourism, public policy, academia, professional sport, business and the media.

The two-day conference created a high-level platform for dialogue on the social and economic role of sport and tourism, with a focus on Sports Integrity, governance, inclusion, technology, health, education and sports entrepreneurship.

More than 70 speakers took part in the programme, including senior government representatives, Olympic and Paralympic medallists, sports executives, academics and media professionals.

The Summit combined in-person attendance with digital participation and extensive publicity, significantly extending its reach beyond the venue.

It also served as a meeting point for public bodies, sports organisations, athletes, universities, businesses and professionals from the sport and tourism ecosystem.
