Lucien Boyer, President and Co-Founder of the Global Sports Week said: “We are delighted to extend our partnership with Yutang Sports, and look forward to our continued collaboration around future GSW endeavors and communications activity in the Chinese Market - ahead of the third edition of Global Sports Week this May, and beyond.

The opportunity to connect with people from different countries and sectors is the heart of the Global Sports Week concept, and developing our activity and presence in China, a key market in global sports for more than a decade now- highlighted by the upcoming organization of the 2022 Beijing Winter Games – has been an ambition for Global Sports Week since day one.

As an influential player in the Chinese sports market, Yutang Sports has been a trusted partner for Global Sports Week in the development of our offer in China, through valued support on the ground when we organized our first hub event in Beijing during the second edition of our world-first hybrid multi-country forum for sport in February 2021 – a successful first experience in China we look forward to replicating and building upon in the coming years.

Given the overall considerations of the event schedule, as well as the diverse sanitary policies worldwide, the GSW 2022 has properly adjusted the scale of its international hubs, which, however, does not undermine the forum’s attention to the Chinese market. After the Beijing Winter Olympics, a dedicated workshop organized by the forum will be held on the ground at the capital of China, in which the prestigious industry leaders and young sports makers will give various ideas and present their perspectives on the development of industry. In addition to the domestic event, Yutang Sports will keep close contact with the Global Sports Week and co-create more China-related topics and activities.

The communications between France and the world, and between France and China, driven by the Global Sports Week, has become more frequent recently in the context of upcoming major sports events including Rugby World Cup France 2023, FIS World Championships Courchevel-Méribel 2023 and the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024. With profound sports connotations and the dual-Olympic feat, China is now unleashing its potential in sports business at the start of its 14th Five Year Plan, while Yutang Sports will take this unprecedented opportunity to facilitate China’s communications with global sports industry and have the development potential fully activated.

3. Yutang Sports  -  A bridge for the interconnections

One of the key highlights regarding Yutang Sports’ cooperation with the GSW 2022 lies in its achievement on having its role as the bridge enhanced after years of experience accumulation. With Yutang Sports’ coordination and Global Sports Week’s recognition, the first edition of the China Business Schools’ Innovation and Entrepreneurship Contest of Winter Olympics and Winter Sports, organized by the Sports Business School of Beijing Sport University, has set out its first step of talent exchange at the global stage, with HU Ziyi and GAO Fengdian, representatives of the Contest, being invited to participate in the GSW Beijing Workshop on behalf of the Chinese GenZ sports talents.

As the full implementation of Public Fitness Strategy further stimulated people’s sports consumptions, a brand-new developmental stage of Chinese sports industry has been unveiled, making it essential for sports stakeholders, including cities, events, sponsors, as well as teenagers, to actively communicate and interact with global community. Having been dedicating itself in global sports industry for more than a decade, Yutang Sports keeps close connections with top sports forums and organizations, with a pure original commitment of establishing the bridge for communications. The facilitated talents exchange, as well as more upcoming communication activities that will be co-initiated with the Global Sports Week, are existing as the invaluable fruits of Yutang Sports’ nonstop accumulations of domestic and international network resources, symbolizing that the company has taken another firm step towards its vision.
