Speaking & media kit

    Speaker, panel and press kit

    Everything an organiser, producer or journalist needs in one place: talk topics, approved biographies, verified career facts and press-ready photography.

    Keynote and panel topics

    The next decade of African sports communications

    Why the continent's sport story is still told from the outside in, what national federations and NOCs need to build to change that, and the practical communications infrastructure that makes it possible on a realistic budget.

    Best for: Federations, NOCs, sport-business conferences, development programmes

    AI and fan engagement: commercial upside, ethical guardrails

    Where artificial intelligence genuinely moves the needle in sports marketing — personalisation, content operations, audience intelligence — and where athlete likeness, consent and image rights demand hard limits before anything ships.

    Best for: Marketing summits, rights holders, sponsors, technology forums

    Press operations under pressure at a global Games

    An operational look inside Games-time communications: accreditation and press-centre workflow, executive voice, rapid response, and building a plan a junior team member can run at 2am without waking anyone up.

    Best for: Organising committees, host cities, communications teams, university programmes

    Available for keynotes, panels, moderation, workshops and podcast interviews, in person or remote.

    Workshops & training

    Training and workshops are designed around the needs of the organisation, from a half-day session to a multi-day programme. Recent work includes two 2026 workshops facilitated for the National Olympic Committee of Zambia.

    Media Engagement Strategy for National Federations

    A practical session for federation leaders and press officers on building proactive media relations: identifying stories worth telling, structuring a press operation on a modest budget, preparing spokespeople, and sustaining relationships with journalists between events.

    Best for: National federations, NOCs, sport administrators, press officers

    AI & Basic Sports Reporting

    A hands-on workshop covering the fundamentals of sports reporting alongside the AI tools that now support it — research, drafting, transcription, image and video workflows — plus the accuracy, attribution and ethics rules that keep the work credible.

    Best for: Communications staff, sports journalists, youth media programmes

    Bespoke curricula can also be built for media teams, athletes, executives and youth programmes.
