UCFB and GIS are very excited to announce the launch of an annual partnership with Soccerex, which will bring many benefits and opportunities to students.
We have been named the ‘official education partners’ for Soccerex between May 2023 and May 2024.
Soccerex is ‘football, connected,’ an organisation which hosts large-scale events globally, providing networking opportunities within the football industry across many countries.
The new collaboration will see UCFB and GIS students offered valuable work experience and opportunities at Soccerex Miami 2023, to be held this coming November.
Furthermore, the Soccerex TV YouTube channel will continue to grow, thanks to the contribution of UCFB and GIS students involved in filming, editing and research for Soccerex TV content in recent months.
The collaboration will also encompass a range of vital aspects, including the delivery of exclusive football executive education courses across the 12-month period.
One of the highlights will be a C-Suite executive-themed day course, scheduled to take place on November 13, 2023, at UCFB's Inter Miami campus.
Soccerex CEO Patrick McCreanor expressed his delight about the partnership, stating: "We are thrilled to be working with UCFB and its Global Institute of Sport for the coming year.
“With its exceptional reputation for sporting education and expertise, we are confident that UCFB and GIS will bring valuable knowledge and experience to the table.
“The C-Suite executive themed day course on November 13, hosted at UCFB’s Inter Miami campus, is just one example of the exciting opportunities this partnership will offer."
Sharona Friedman, UCFB president said: “We are delighted to announce UCFB and the Global Institute of Sport as the official educational partner of Soccerex.
“This partnership will provide a unique opportunity for students to learn from industry experts and gain hand-on experience within the sports industry.
“We look forward to working together over the next year to create a new generation of sports leaders who will shape the future of the industry.”
