World Football Summit

Co-founder of @WFSummit @janalessie and author Nima Abu Wardeh showcase labor market dynamics through the lens of sports, taking a closer look at how talent is valued, why rewards concentrate at the top, and what this reveals about inequality across labor markets. #GLMC2026

How AI enabled @livescore to evolve from statistics provider to football storyteller. Sam Sadi, CEO of LiveScore, explained at WFS Riyadh the transformation: generative AI now allows them to generate personalised match narratives in real time.

At WFS, we've reviewed 120+ hours of conversations from our five global 2025 events—featuring 600+ speakers across 160+ sessions. We processed 600+ pages of transcripts to identify which topics dominated industry conversations and where attention —and investment— is shifting.

What a journey at @WFSummit 2025 in Riyadh! We showcased @xplere latest innovations, reconnected with long-time partners, and engaged with new industry leaders, gaining valuable insights for the future of sports tech. #WFS #Xplere #SportsTech

Al-Hilal, NEOM and Al-Qadisah all showing interest in Mo Salah, but caution from within Saudi as to whether the Egyptian striker will genuinely be both available and affordable in January. Liverpool still ideally want Salah to see out his contract.🇪🇬 talksport.com/football/38065…
