Registration Closing for 2012 SportAccord Convention

Switzerland – SportAccord Convention announced today that registration will close for the 2012 edition of the Convention on May 4. Very few delegate places remain for the 10th anniversary edition of SportAccord Convention taking place in Québec City in Canada from May 20-25, 2012.

“We are nearly at our absolute limit for being able to accommodate any more people,” said Anna Hellman, executive director of SportAccord Convention. “It is essential that anyone seeking to join us in Québec, who has still not registered, do so immediately. This includes press wanting to cover the event.”

Registration is available at www.sportaccordconvention.com until 2400hrs CET on Friday 4th May.

Held in a different city every year, SportAccord Convention is a unique opportunity for international sporting leaders to engage with business, featuring a dynamic exhibition as well as the annual general meetings of governing bodies of world sport.
