SPORTEL and SportBusiness to be Partners From 2019
SPORTEL and SportBusiness announced a major new multi-year partnership, joining forces to deliver a new series of global sports industry conferences – the Sports Decision Makers Summits.
The partnership, which begins in 2019, unites two iconic names in the business of sport. Combining the wealth of experience that SPORTEL has in event management, with the editorial insight and data from SportBusiness, the partnership will deliver a truly unique event which will set the benchmark for future sport business conferences and events.
As well as the joint strengths of SPORTEL and SportBusiness, each Summit will draw on specially commissioned, exclusive and proprietary research which will delve into industry trending areas and provide key take-away learnings for delegates to use in their businesses. In addition, the research and insight will be shared exclusively with and debated by a star-studded line up of Decision Makers from across a broad range of sectors in the sports industry – media, sponsorship, technology, fan engagement and stadia.
This combination – two of the most trusted brands in the sports industry, specially commissioned research and the most exclusive line-up of speakers and panellists- will mean that the Sports Decision Makers Summits will become the must-attend events in the calendars of senior Decision Makers in the business of sport.
The first event of the partnership will be the Sports Decision Makers Summit, Miami, held between May 6-7, 2019, at The W South Beach, Miami. This will be followed by Sports Decision Makers Summit, London on July 9-10, 2019. Further details can be found at: http://www.sportsdecisionmakers.com

Codere Online Reports Financial Results for the First Quarter 2024
Codere Online (Nasdaq: CDRO / CDROW, the “Company”), a leading online gaming operator in Spain and Latin America, has released its preliminary unaudited[2] financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Aviv Sher, CEO of Codere Online, commented on the results, “We are off to a strong start in 2024, with net gaming revenue of €53 million in the first quarter, 34% above that of last year and once again our highest ever quarterly figure. Our focus on Mexico and Spain continues to yield impressive results, with net gaming revenue in Mexico growing by 51% in the first quarter to nearly €27 million. In Spain, meanwhile, net gaming revenue grew by 21% to over €22 million. In both markets, our targeted marketing efforts allowed us to grow our active customer base by c. 25% as a result of the acquisition of higher quality customers (i.e. lower churn) but also with an increased spend per active.”
Oscar Iglesias, CFO of Codere Online, stated, “Once again, top line growth exceeded our expectations in the first quarter, with Mexico continuing to put distance on Spain as our largest market by revenue. We are particularly excited, however, to see Mexico now also contributing positive Adjusted EBITDA for the first time. This, together with a strong performance by Spain, allowed us to generate €1.7 million in total Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter, which represents a significant step towards achieving our full year profitability targets.”
Mr. Iglesias further added, “On the back of this strong performance in the first quarter and based on recent trading activity, we now expect to generate between €195-210 million of net gaming revenue in 2024, and reaffirm that we expect to generate positive Adjusted EBITDA and cash flow for the full year in 2024.”
