It will see Facebook lead, sports media partnerships EMEA, Anna Chanduvi (pictured above) talk about the social media giant’s plans to service the sports and broadcasting community, including with new types of content and sporting experiences. These include virtual stadium and virtual sporting events, which Chanduvi will explain during her fireside chat with Broadcast Sport editor Jake Bickerton. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions directly to Chanduvi following the session.

The second session at the Breakfast Club is with the FA’s senior content innovations manager Damien Cullen and esports agency Digital Sports Management senior partnerships manager, Jennifer Davidson.

Together, they will talk about two ambitious five-hour live streams the FA hosted on Twitch and Facebook earlier this month, to create a spectacle around the process of selecting the England eLions team.

The live FIFA 21 esports tournament saw 16 players whittled down to the final four, who will now represent England for the coming year.

  • The atmosphere at MPTS has been amazing this year. MPTS is definitely one of the industry’s most diverse shows, if not the most diverse, both in terms of attendees and panelists. A huge amount of work goes into making sure that there is equal representation across an extensive conference programme.

  • I think this year 2024 is probably the most innovative, cutting-edge, head-of-the-curve MPTS that I’ve exhibited at so far. I think even compared to last year, attendees really know what they’re looking for when it comes to cloud, AI, virtual production, all of the buzz words, all of the emerging technologies, everyone’s really embraced it.
