The Master GOALS and the digital transformation

There is no doubt that technology has been changing businesses in all sectors, fundamentally transforming the customer experience and the internal running of organisations. The sports industry is undergoing a major shift in the way it operates, and digital technologies are opening up significant opportunities for growth. However, to fully capitalise on these opportunities, sports organisations are likely to need a digital makeover.

Sports industry needs to integrate digital into all business aspects, transforming people, processes and technology. Committing to the digital transformation journey requires a deep understanding of current capabilities, as well as a vision for the future that will determine how capabilities, processes, organisational structure and technology will need to change.
