The NBA’s Deputy Commissioner and Chief Operating Officer Mark Tatum will be among the top speakers in the GSWArena, joining alongside Andrew Parsons, International Paralympic Committee President, and Karina LeBlanc, Head of Women’s Football at CONCACAF to discuss sport as a catalyst for social justice.
Over in Dakar, Amadou Gallo Fall, President of the NBA’s new Basketball Africa League, will set out his vision in a session forming part of a live broadcast from the Global Sports Week Dakar hub event.
The NBA said: “The NBA is thrilled to be taking part in the Global Sports Week and as a ‘Proud Supporter’ of the event, we look forward to five days of meaningful conversation and engagement across a range of topics.”
