The school offer the following description of the event:
There are those that believe that the one constant is change. Nowhere is that truer than in sports where many long-held beliefs, presumptions, and associations are falling to the constant press of change. From streaming professional football games; college conference expansion; the recent World Cup in Qatar; the advent of NIL deals providing compensation to college athletes; the integration of legalized sports betting across the globe; the press for greater autonomy for athletes; rise of mega stadiums; record sale prices for professional franchises; to the globalization of sports – nothing is as it was even a year ago.
Join Seton Hall Law School and its Gaming, Hospitality, Entertainment & Sports (GHamES) Initiative and a group of exceptional professionals to explore Sports in Time of Change at our Third Annual Sports Law Symposium. Over two days we’ll talk with the people shaping and observing sports up close to examine the force of change in sports, what is driving it and what its effects may be now and in the future.
