On 18/19 November 2014, the Josoor Institute in Doha, Qatar held a two-day course entitled “Law and its Implications on Sports and Event Practitioners” which aimed at discussing contemporary legal issues in sport as well as raising awareness among local sports and events practitioners for the legal implications of hosting, sponsoring and working in global sports events.
Andreas Zagklis delivered presentations on Governance of Sporting Organisations and contributed in the discussion regarding corruption, doping and future challenges for event organisers. He participated in a panel interview with Ben Bye, Senior Commercial Lawyer, International Cricket Council (ICC), Prof. Richard McLaren from McLaren Global Sport Solution and Ahmad Anani from Latham Watkins.
