Especialidad: Business Management; Sports Management Head of Research, Olympic Studies Centre Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona Formación: Currently I am a tenured professor and the Director of the Management of Business and Technology undergraduate degree programme at La Salle (Universitat Ramon Llull). A highly innovative international business programme with over 300 students, more than 50 nationalities represented, with an international faculty of over 60 professors. This degree programme has grown significantly over the past 4 years and is now a reference point for a new generation of business studies in the city of Barcelona. Integrating the technology knowhow of our engineering school with an entrepreneurial and highly practical business approach, the degree aims to prepare graduates for the current and future challenges of organizational management in a technology-driven society. My background and passion is in Sports Management where I studied my undergraduate and doctorate (at Loughborough University, UK), and where I developed my main research interests. After studying at the International Olympic Academy in Olympia (Greece) I found the Games to be an inspiration and was lucky to work for, and continue to collaborate with, the Olympic Studies Centre (UAB) on mega-event impacts, communication and the social value of sport. Researching and consulting for the IOC provided me an in-depth insight into the management of, and business behind, the world’s biggest sporting event. This led me into lecturing at business schools in and around Barcelona, and my collaboration with La Salle (URL) where I came on board full-time in 2008. La Salle continues to show me the value of education and human development, enabling me to experience the management of educational experiences at the postgraduate (MBA) and undergraduate levels. My current research interests focus on fan engagement and the role of new technologies and have had the privilege to work closely with Euroleague Basketball since 2012, and previously with FC Barcelona, the F1 Spanish GP and Mediapro among others.
