In six days time, the ALSD International conference and exhibition will commence in the Northern Powerhouse that is Liverpool. With expert speakers, industry-leading exhibitors & sponsors and high-level attendees from clubs & teams, stadia & arenas, leagues & federations, etc., the two-day hybrid event – being hosted by Liverpool Football Club and virtualised by Ungerboeck – means professionals from across the globe can come together to network and engage.

As a hybrid event, both physical and virtual attendees will be able to ‘attend’ thanks to an innovative microsite powered by Ungerboeck ensuring optimised opportunities for engagement pre, during and post event.
