ISDE Campus

Nairobi, KENYA – ISDE Law Business School, a prestigious educational institution regarded as a global leader for its sports law and business expertise, has proudly announced the availability of scholarships worth $90,000.00 for the upcoming Africa Football Business Summit participants. ISDE puts forward the scholarships with the support of some of the most prestigious sports law practices and institutions. This generous scholarship initiative aims to empower individuals passionate about football and its business aspects across Africa. It follows a successful partnership at last year’s event, upon which both ISDE and the Africa Football Business Summit sought to build.

The Africa Football Business Summit 2023, scheduled for the 14th and 15th of September in Nairobi, is a prominent event organised by The Football Foundation for Africa that brings together key stakeholders, industry experts, and decision-makers from the African football industry. It is a platform for discussions, knowledge sharing, and business collaborations to advance development in African football (enterprise).

ISDE Law Business School’s commitment to fostering education and professional growth in sports law and business has led to the establishment these scholarships. The scholarships will be awarded to deserving individuals who demonstrate a strong passion for the football business and possess the potential to make a significant impact in the field.

The $90,000 scholarships will support tuition fees for select courses offered by ISDE Law Business School. These courses provide specialised knowledge in sports management, sports marketing, sports finance, and sports law, equipping participants with the necessary skills to navigate the complex landscape of the football industry.

Commenting on the scholarship initiative, Mr Juan José Sánchez Puig, the CEO of ISDE Law Business School, stated, “We are delighted to support the Africa Football Business Summit (and The Football Foundation for Africa) through our scholarship program. We believe in the transformative power of education and its ability to drive positive change in the sports industry. By offering these scholarships, we aim to continue to empower talented individuals from Africa and enable them to contribute to the growth and development of the football business on the continent.”

It also demonstrates the quality of the event (Africa Football Business Summit) we are putting together, which is only in its second edition. We look forward to hosting the ISDE team in Nairobi in September as we continue to cement our relationship.”
